This article is POV. I right away saw "dating back to 23 million years ago"! If this is a neutral encyclopedia, then it shouldn't contain that kind of "information". We don't knew that the earth is that old! I never see any articles written from a Creationist's point of view! Scorpionman 23:24, 9 February 2006 (UTC)
- There is a reason for that: creationism is minority view, which means that it receives less attention than majority views, I'm afraid. Policy is quite clear on this. Scientifically there is no doubt that the stated ages are correct, and replacing scientifically derived data with religiously derived data is a violation of npov. -- Ec5618 00:06, 10 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Too much human history? Not enough geological or recreational?
The article talks in depth on human history that relates to the park, but very little about the formations, wildlife, and events that are currently visible. The human history section is very indepth, and so I balk at editing it down, but there is a definite lack in important areas (i.e. recreation, geology, visitor's guide, etc.).
In my opinion, the site should give people an idea of what they would see and do at the park in addition to the history behind it. Benwildeboer 20:29, 7 June 2006 (UTC)
