message: The article contains no hint as to the real potential of E-Verify. If made mandatory for all employers, E-Verify could essentially -- and compassionately -- halt illegal immigration by giving the signal that the era of wink-and-a-nod was over. Removing the employment magnet would be a simple, humane way of fomenting self-deportation for many illegal immigrants. E-Verify is cheap, very highly accurate, and one of the very few tools available to efficiently combat massive illegal immigration. The article should note these things. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.44.153.18 (talk) 20:38, 5 June 2009 (UTC)

message: "The program has also been called inaccurate, though the error rate, currently around 8 percent, is decreasing, as many of the errors came from changing last names after marriage, or not informing the government they were now citizens." Isn't the government the very entity that naturalizes aliens. So how the government not be aware of this fact?

thread_title:  Article Needs Arguments For/Against E-Verify 

message: Not quite sure why this is included. There could be substantially less in this section.
I think the general point of the section is to show that making e-verify mandatory to receive STEM extensions prevents a significant number of otherwise qualified Foreign Nationals (FNs) from receiving the extension simply because their prospective employer does not participate in the E-Verify program. At this point, I don't see how this is any more than a possibility and does not represent a serious, well-documented problem. In my 2-3 years in commercial immigration dealing with H-1Bs/TNs/L-1s/etc., I have yet to come across this issue. If we are going to say this is a recognized problem, then there should be citations supporting this proposition. Otherwise, we should merely note it is a possibility, which is discouraged under the weasel words policy. 199.107.16.122 (talk) 20:10, 19 July 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Section on H-1B Visa 

message: If you are going to write, such and such article came out in April -- then at the very minimum you should provide the year. Here is the specific example in the section entitled Criticism where this occurred:
:The American Farm Bureau Foundation opposes E-Verify and stated in July that...
JULY OF WHAT YEAR -- and no, I do not want to have to follow an often broken link merely to find the year which the author of this sentence failed to include. This is exactly the kind of dotting the i's and crossing the t's that separates a well edited encyclopedia entry from an amateurish one. Thanks.

message: I made the following edits to E-Verify: 
in the LEDE, I added "Reception to the E-Verify program has been mixed. Criticism includes arguments that only a small percentage of employers participate in E-Verify,Tatiana Sanchez (Jan 23, 2018) E-Verify doesn't prevent many companies from hiring undocumented workers, ChicagoTribune.com, accessed 10 May 2018 while other research shows that E-Verify harms the labor market outcomes of undocumented immigrants and improves the labor market outcomes of Mexican legal immigrants and U.S.-born Hispanics, but has no impact on labor market outcomes for non-Hispanic white Americans. A 2016 study suggests that E-Verify reduces the number of undocumented immigrants in states that have mandated use of E-Verify for all employers, and further notes that the program may deter illegal immigration to the US in general." 
The citations are from a Chigago Trib article (new citation), and other citations are from 2 peer-reviewed papers that were already listed as references (I merely changed the reference style to allow for easier citation). 
User Snooganssnoogans deleted the sentence from the Trib and wrote, "let's not contrast partisan rhetoric with actual research". However, same user did not specify what "partisan rhetoric" specifically was at issue, and did not cite any authority on E-Verify who thinks the citation involved are somehow partisan. How is pointing out that a small percentage of US employers use E-Verify "partisan"? I revert to my edits. If Snooganssnoogans wants to provide credible sources to back assertions of "partisan rhetoric", by all means do so.
