Talk:Compass Resources

message: This article is a description of how evil and nasty Compass Resources are for mining.  That should be covered, but there should also be some description of the company's history, their major shareholders, their management team, their side of the environmental story, and so on. --Robert Merkel 11:49, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I have protected the article from new and anon editors to force them to discuss the changes here instead of destroying each other's versions of the article. --Scott Davis Talk 01:57, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

text: I froze it because neither later version looked as good, and I was too busy in RL to choose a version based on content. I'd rather try to clean up a longer version than start essentially from scratch. It appears that Rum Jungle, Northern Territory is related, and maybe some  info needs to move between these two articles. Starting at the top, is there anything wrong with the infobox or the first two sentences? --Scott Davis Talk 09:01, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: How am I doing so far? Can I move the disputed tag down to one section instead of the whole article? --Scott Davis Talk 12:25, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Have moved the disputed and unsourced text to the talk page below for work beofre reincluding in the article but left the tag as it is obviously a dispute --Golden Wattle  talk 19:19, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

message: The NT government appears to have published a number of environmental assessment documents about Browns Oxide at http://www.nt.gov.au/nreta/environment/assessment/register/brownsoxide/ which has links to a number of PDF files. If anyone uses content of these to reference parts of the article, please use  and include the pages= parameter and optionally quote= from the document to assist others to easily find the context of your reference. --Scott Davis Talk 03:23, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: My first issue was the battle was making the article look worse - I didn't look at content initially, and still haven't reviewed the competing versions. If you have a proposal to add stuff that's not there now, please put it here if you're not yet able to edit the page directly. I'll be out of contact for a couple of days, but will look in here when I get back. --Scott Davis Talk 12:50, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

text: The "one reference" of http://www.compass-resources.info appears to be an attack site spoof of the company's official website http://www.compassnl.com.au/ The so-called reference is not a reliable source according to Wikipedia policy. I doubt that the Nuclear Territory News is any better. Try sourcing from the Northern Territory News instead. --Scott Davis Talk 02:05, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

text: I don't have time to read the  ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT REPORT AND RECOMMENDATIONS published by the NT Governent at the moment to see if that covers the environment stuff you're looking for. If you cite from large PDFs like this or other documents from http://www.nt.gov.au/nreta/environment/assessment/register/brownsoxide/ , please include page numbers, and perhaps brief quotes. --Scott Davis Talk 02:14, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
