[edit] Weasel words
- "Today, it is considered by many to be one of the top zoos..."
Can anyone find some references to back this up? Cburnett 20:18, 1 October 2006 (UTC)
- Well, I found a link but not exactly the best of sources. Cburnett 03:18, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Internal linking
Seems like a lot of unnecessary internal linking is in this article. Is it really necessary to link every unit of measurment? Seems a bit much to me. I like WP guidelines for internal links. Too many links are distracting. Hope that helps. A mcmurray 03:44, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
- Also I am pretty sure the type of information contained in the fee table is frowned upon on wikipedia. It's place might be Wikitravel. A mcmurray 06:37, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
I tend to lean toward the liberal usage of links. My general guideline is one link per section (see Lied Jungle for example) if long enough because I don't want to have to go searching for a link. My choice is to leave as is but that's me.
As for prices: I agree. Instead, I thought it'd be interesting to make it historical so I hit archive.org and got prices back to 1999. The near doubling of admission in less than a decade is quite surprising & interesting and I think warrants encyclopedic inclusion instead of wikitravel. Cburnett 06:52, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
