:Sorry, my initial reaction was based on the fact that coffeeresearch.org had some dollar numbers and very little content on it; so I figured it was an advertisement. Seems to be OK now though. -- intgr 13:42, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: Did you not NOTICE the edit by other editors, which claim that: "The primary producers of organic coffee are; Guatemala, Peru, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, and Mexico[citation needed]." - do not have citation? And Wikipedia edits or anything added must have resources or references, otherwise, they are not reliable. I can put there Chile or Spain, but how can the reader or scholar cite this article if there is no citation? So, my edit of Negros, is supported by 2 links. Refer this discussion to improve this article to Filipino editor --Lenticel (talk), Ateneo expert and for Valencia, Negros, just a road away from this coffee. ---Florentino floro (talk) 06:32, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I found a reference for the "primary producers" of organic coffee, and the ones listed as the main producers are Peru, Ethiopia, and Mexico. I do not mean to slight the Philippines, which is indeed a producer of organic coffee (among some 40 other countries). I don't think it makes any sense to have every single producing country, much less every region of every countre, so I have shortened the list of primary producers even further, to agree with the reference. Again, I want to emphasize, yes, Negros, Philippines does produce organic coffee, but the procedures there are no different from the stringent requirements of organic production anywhere. maxsch (talk) 21:12, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Negros organic coffee

message: I am dubious of the claim the traditional coffee has pesticides in it after harvesting, cleaning, processing and roasting. I am also dubious of the claim that most traditional coffee is not shade grown. The coffee plant needs shade, this shade may not always come from trees, but the type of shade doesn't affect the organic/conventional label. I've removed a lot of this unsubstantiated praise of organic farming. I don't think it helps the cause (which, incidentally, I support). maxsch (talk) 19:26, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Last night, the counterpart news video on this article was aired on ABS-CBN TV Patrol, our top TV; and I thought that this was a commercial thing; but, the entire video reveals the launching of a nationalism / nationalistic FIRST, in Philippines, on coffee. And Negros Occidental, specifically at the foot of Mt. Kanlaon, is a virgin pasture and agricultural land where this organic coffee was born. The video also shows the delicate and minute obedience of the process to international organic standards. - --Florentino floro (talk) 06:19, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Mr Floro, this is completely irrelevant to my comments. Please stay on topic. I made a lot of changes to this page, not just to your edits. It needed work. It had (and still has to some extent) serious issues with neutrality. I am not talking about the inclusion (or not) of the Philippines on the list of producer nations. If anyone has references for the claims about the health benefits of organic coffee, I am happy to include those claims, but as it stands, they don't seem scientifically valid. maxsch (talk) 23:01, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
