2 Problems

  1. This is not the only Wolf River in Wisconsin... There is at least one other, a tributary of the North Fork Eau Claire River, which flows into the Eau Claire River (Chippewa River) in northeastern Eau Claire county.
  2. Parts of this article read like an advertisement or advocacy for the sturgeon folks... Tomer TALK 22:13, 17 October 2005 (UTC)Reply
As a resident, I assure you that the words are not hype; you just have to be interested in the outdoors to come. It is isolated, all right, but the people are decent, and the land is beautiful. (That's why Wis is in my user name.) --Ancheta Wis 20:58, 29 December 2005 (UTC)Reply
But Tomer, since I see you live in EC, please edit as you see fit. I am sincere about the people and the land. --Ancheta Wis 21:02, 29 December 2005 (UTC)Reply
I agree with the beauty, but this is an encyclopedia. I'm with Tomer. Royalbroil Talk  Contrib 23:15, 13 October 2006 (UTC)Reply
There's a lot about fish and little about the river: ecology, geology, hydrology, points of interest, flora and fauna, etc. If this were a full length article, a few paragraphs about the fish would be in place; as it is, we have little scholarly content about the topic.

Thanks for the push Royal. Could not verify weight so I went with length.--Buster7 (talk) 12:39, 8 June 2008 (UTC)Reply

The text says "The Wolf River rises in the north woods...". There's a lot of woods in northern Wisconsin. Which? Where? I think it's referring to the vicinity of Pine Lake in Nicolet National Forest. Figuratively, that's a woods (big woods!) I guess. It's vague and not scholarly diction; in fact, we could just leave the whole phrase "in the north woods" out and lose nothing. Encyclopedias are very concise diction. Sbalfour (talk) 17:03, 1 March 2019 (UTC)Reply
