Talk:Ameiurus

message: I added this to be a short article explaining bullheads in general.  I think this article should only focus on the commonalities and be kept simple, and let the individual bullhead articles explain the differences.  Pharmboy 18:16, 8 July 2007 (UTC)

message: The summary of this edit reverting my recent contributions states that it removes "edits without citations", but instead it reverts a sentence with three citations to a sentence (and corresponding category) with none. It also reverts a couple of citations from citeweb form to bare urls, and removes two external links.  These last changes may have been inadvertent, but the first is clearly not, and is directly opposite of what the summary describes.
As to whether bullheads are popular with anglers and as food fish, I would like to quote some of the removed citations:
Some Catfishes of New York (New York Department of Environmental Conservation):
:Brown bullheads are delicious to eat and a favorite of many. During the spring, anglers can catch them by the bucketful and large bullhead feeds are popular especially in New York State's Great Lakes counties.
The Practical Angler (page 146):
:This excellent table-fish ...
McClane's Field Guide to Freshwater Fishes (page 102):
:[The black bullhead] is a commonly stocked farm-pond species ... and an excellent table fish
And one of the removed external links:
Fishing for Bullheads (Iowa Department of Natural Resources):
:Many Iowans have a nostalgic feeling toward bullheads because it is very likely that for many it was their first fish. This experience may result in a life-time addiction to bullhead fishing or serve as a catalyst to spark an interest into all types of fishing. Regardless, bullhead fishing is popular with all age groups, and it is as close as the nearest lake or pond. Their abundance and the relative ease with which they are caught endears this fish, as no other, to Iowa anglers.  
And while I'm on a roll, let's quote Outdoor Life Magazine:
Tips for Bullheads:
:Bullheads will pounce on any offering of edibles with wild abandon. They strike hard and without any pretense of caution. They fight tenaciously. Rolled in cornmeal and fried, they are delicious. It is not surprising, therefore, that millions of anglers of all ages love bullheads.
:In Iowa, for example, bullheads lead in fish popularity polls, with anglers catching 12.5 million a year. In Waterville, Minnesota, the Bullhead Capital of the World, residents gather each June to enjoy Bullhead Days, a celebration in which deep-fried bullheads are served by street vendors. Bullheads are the only type of catfish available to many New England anglers, and thus are frequently targeted. Millions of the catfish are stocked annually, particularly in small urban waters. 
I don't do debates, so I'm out of here.  Maybe I'll go to Iowa. Do what you want with the page, but let the record show that I cited reasonable, relevant sources.
