[edit] Indonesian rainforests
The article is POV, the title is not suited to the srticle content and the article title is not an encyclopeadic. Alan Liefting 07:15, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
- Delete as per nom. It's been almost a year since I first saw this (and added {{NPOV}} to it) and the body of the text hasn't changed significantly. I doubt it ever will. Better to get rid of it and let someone start from scratch on the subject if they wish. --TheParanoidOne 10:14, 1 May 2006 (UTC)

- Comment The tone of the article is definitely unencyclopedic, but its main problem is that it is totally undocumented. However, basing myself on various news reports I've read about this, what is written here is not an exaggeration of the situation. I'm convinced this can be documented with reputable sources – if anyone cares enough to look into it – which should yield enough material to wikify this in a proper way. We can then ascribe the statements presented and add some obligatory neutralizing statements like that the Indonesian authorities deny the allegations or whatever. (Don't look my direction; I'm not gonna do it.) LambiamTalk 19:34, 3 May 2006 (UTC)
- The tone of the article would suggest a article title of Logging of Indonesian rainforests or Deforestation of Indonesian rainforests or such like. The article name as it currently stands should be redirected to Tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests. Alan Liefting 03:52, 4 May 2006 (UTC)
- Redirect, I agree with Alan. -- MaNeMeBasat 10:21, 6 May 2006 (UTC)
