EL seem promotional

edit

The external links for this article seem promotional. They should point to national associations for this activity or specific highly respected organizations. These seem to be just some companies in this business. See WP:ELNO. - - MrBill3 (talk) 07:39, 14 May 2014 (UTC)Reply

Done - removed, as clearly violating WP:EL. GermanJoe (talk) 14:58, 25 January 2018 (UTC)Reply

Condensing article content

edit

After a large expansion in 2014, the article has a few major problems: 1) Wikipedia is not a guide, so detailed information about how and why to set up such a board are inappropriate (a short sourced summary may be OK if it can be based on academic expert sources). 2) Wikipedia is not a textbook and does not need excessive lists of examples, that only serve to promote specific entities. 3) Large parts of the updated article are unsourced, they need to be trimmed and referenced. I have started cleaning up some of these problems, but more work is needed. GermanJoe (talk) 14:51, 25 January 2018 (UTC)Reply
