[edit] Quotation

Many wikipedia articles begin with a relevant quote, why is the quote for this article being removed? --NEMT 13:43, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

  1. Because it is confusing and inaccurate nonsense - the species cited all have bark
  2. Scientific articles don't start with quotes
  3. If it is a quote (which I have no reason to suppose it is), it should include the details of the person making the quote

  1. It's not confusing nor is it inaccurate, a quotation can be factually incorrect and still be accurate.
  2. I've never seen any official wiki policy on which articles may start with quotes and which may not.
  3. You have a reason to suppose it is an "actual quote", WP:AGF.

The context of the quote clearly dismisses the scientific value of the parenthesized part. --NEMT 14:51, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
