[edit] Cleanup: Academic articles

I've just gone through the article and cleaned it up a bit. I removed or reworded some POV, made it flow better and formatted all the references. What I suggest needs to be done now is that the studies - which occupy some 1/3 to 1/2 of the article - be incorporated into the text itself. If the studies are of critical importance or significance then perhaps they can become articles themselves, but they should be used in this text to verify statements made, not be features of the article themselves. kabl00ey 10:30, 3 November 2007 (UTC)


Do they make bark collars for cats? I need mine to shut the hell up. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.72.21.221 (talk) 02:22, 25 December 2007 (UTC)


I am a little confused about the supportive material. It seems the most credible looking article (The PDF) dates back to 2004. In technology age that's like 100 years. How about those collars with vibration and tones etc. Can someone please clean things up. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Turkakbay (talkcontribs) 18:43, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] POV tag

This concerns POV tag cleanup. Whenever an POV tag is placed, it is necessary to also post a message in the discussion section stating clearly why it is thought the article does not comply with POV guidelines, and suggestions for how to improve it. This permits discussion and consensus among editors. This is a drive-by tag, which is discouraged in WP, and it shall be removed. Future tags should have discussion posted as to why the tag was placed, and how the topic might be improved. Better yet, edit the topic yourself with the improvements. This statement is not a judgement of content, it is only a cleanup of frivolously and/or arbitrarily placed tags. No discussion, no tag.Jjdon (talk) 00:13, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
