Talk:Laboratory animal suppliers in the United Kingdom

January 2006

I delinked most of the farms because a number of them were pointing to the wrong places.

What I (and most other editors) would usually do is change the links to point to a new article, like this: [[Harlan (farm)|Harlan]]. That would point the Harlan farms to a new article at 'Harlan (farm)', instead of Harlan which is a disambiguation page. I didn't do that because I don't know if Arfan or anyone else intends to create articles on all of the farms. Before doing so I recommend they read our guidelines for inclusion of companies, though any farm that was closed due to a terrorist campaign would almost certainly be notable. --Last Malthusian 19:56, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

OK thanks. I'm wondering if it would be a good idea to change the name to "Laboratory Animal Suppliers in the UK" since it isn't really a list any more. Are there any guidelines on creating country-specific pages since I'm interested mainly in the history of the animal rights movement in the UK? Or should it be an international page with subsection for different countries as and when they are added? Arfan2006 22:17, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

You could start it as Laboratory animals suppliers in the UK and then move it if non-UK ones are added. Or else start it as Laboratory animal suppliers, create a section called Suppliers in the UK, add your list, and then wait for someone else to add other sections. It's up to you; I don't believe there are any guidelines about it. SlimVirgin ^(talk) 22:24, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

{{POV}} and {{unfocused}} tags

I added POV and unfocused tags because this article reads as a criticism of the animal rights movement. It should discuss the suppliers themselves and the industry, not its critics. voorts (talk/contributions) 01:50, 4 June 2023 (UTC)
