What this page should be
editThis page should evolve into a treatment of what a coastal elfin forest is and the two disambigs should be elaborated as examples. Susiemorgan (talk) 18:36, 1 June 2009 (UTC)
Expanding the Page
editAs part of a school assignment, my group is planning on expanding this article to include more information on the ecoprocesses, and elfin forest regions. A current rough draft of this project can be found at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Incamonubus/sandbox
The citation on our rough draft is still very rough, and will be adapted to the method wikipedia uses shortly. For now, we were focused on the information. Thank you! Incamonubus (talk) 16:46, 5 November 2014 (UTC)
Merge discussion
editAs far as I can tell, this concept is identical with pygmy forest, and both use California coastal forests as the prime example, so they should be merged. I'm not sure which term is prevalent in the literature. Both "Elfin Forest" [1] and "Pygmy Forest" [2] are proper names for landmarks in California , which obscures the search. Whatever the case, the articles should be merged first and decide on the title later. No such user (talk) 07:14, 2 October 2015 (UTC)
- I merged pygmy forest into elfin forest and moved the article to dwarf forest. Will start organizing material into a more coherent article soon. No such user (talk) 10:05, 22 December 2015 (UTC)

Better Examples...
editThe list of examples strikes me as very provincial. It's *FAR* too long, especially considering that it only includes examples of one type of dwarf forest and only lists places in the U.S. state of California. This despite an introductory paragraph stating that dwarf forests can be found in Central and South America and that the largest such forest is in the Phillipines. Why, then, isn't that "largest" dwarf forest listed among the examples? Why no representative forests from Central or South America? Mrkstvns (talk) 21:51, 24 June 2022 (UTC)
