thread_title:  Divide the notable LEED buildings part by region? 

message: There are a lot of red links in it. The paragraph spacing is also a bit extra.

thread_title:  Innovation in design research 

message: An additional sentence that can be added to the fourth paragraph is:
The first LEED-certified home was built in the United States in 2006 and was inspected and rated by Conservation Services Group. 
A citation for the end of this sentence would be:

thread_title:  Additional details on history 

message: LEED is not universally well thought of. Many professionals have raised critiques from a variety of angles. How can an article this long not reflect ANY criticism? Is it maintained by USGBC staff?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.172.96.122 (talk) 20:15, 23 October 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  No Criticism section? 

message: The Internet is so full of bogus links to spam pages it is like breath of fresh air to go to Wikipedia and find the real organization for the LEED standard and real reliable information. To the editors of this page. You are Great! Thanks. 69.39.49.27 (talk) 19:07, 7 May 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Thanks to Editors 

message: Some of this article sounds more like a commercial than an encyclopedia.  For instance:
"LEED certified buildings often provide healthier work and living environments, which contributes to higher productivity and improved employee health and comfort."
This sentence is loaded with poor logic and vaguely defined terms.  Exactly the sort of thing I would expect an encyclopedia to filter out.  ...Just the facts please...  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.111.136.61 (talk) 17:54, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Neutrality?

thread_title:  History 

message: Completely un-neutral and unreferenced.  I know a lot of these are legitimate points, but wikipedia isn't a discussion board.  Jesse Crouch (talk) 05:08, 21 December 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Benefits and disadvantages 

message: This article is largely unreferenced.  
The certification section should be condensed and more prose than a list.  A general description of the point system and what categories the points fall into would be sufficient.  The actual points that are given can be found on official LEED documents and don't need to be duplicated here, especially given the quickly-changing state of LEED currently.
Looks like there's lots of original research here.  A lot of it looks valid and mostly unharmful for not, but should be cited soon.Jesse Crouch (talk) 05:08, 21 December 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified (January 2018) 

message: This article is quite plainly a pamphlet written by some supporter or staff member of some part of LEED.  It's a puff piece.
 
This is a pity because it makes what may very well be a worthwhile professional practice look more like an aggressively evangelical cult of some sort.
 
The fact that the article is more public relations than encyclopedia entry leads it to some oddities.  For instance, we have  LEED also has grown from six volunteers on one committee to 119,924 staff, volunteers and professionals.[10] LEED standards have been applied to approximately 83,452 registered and certified LEED projects worldwide, covering around 13.8 billion square feet (1.28 billion square meters).[11]
 
The organization claims to have existed since 1993 yet 119 thousand people have applied it to 84 thousand projects. Two projects for every three people in a generation flat?  This looks to me like a ridiculous result of somebody simply picking the most boastful available number, the biggest around, without thinking for a moment what they mean.
Somebody call rewrite, maybe?
