Talk:The Elephant Sanctuary in Tennessee

message: I would like to add a link to add research into Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and elephants.  I also wanted to add that Winkie has been diagnosed with PTSD.  Please advise.--Anita 05:35, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

*Support as nom. "Hohenwald" is not part of the official name or the common name. There isn't another "Elephant Sanctuary" vying for the article name. --Dhartung | Talk 10:58, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Survey

message: I tried to revamp the article with respect to copyright issues.  I did at one point ask Carol Buckley herself what changes she thought should be made to the article.  The only changes she suggested were to Scott Blais' title and the number of habitats.  If she had any problems with copyright, she didn't mention them.Anita 02:20, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: It looks like much of this article is taken verbatim from this website: , presumably part of the official website for the santuary. The first paragraph of the article in particular seems to be mainly from the website, as does much of the Facilities section. :Silverfish 23:17, 25 December 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Possible Copyright violation 

message: This section is unclear. Is there research being done by the individuals mentioned at the sanctuary or is this just a list of researchers doing this kind of research in general? If there is research being done at this institution, I would expect some kind of reference or references to the research in the primary journals--a list of researchers does not say much. If this is just a list of researchers who do this kind of research in general, it is out of place here.Kgilbert78 (talk) 20:13, 11 October 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Non-Invasive Research 

message: I moved the points in "History" to one paragraph but I think its still too detailed, as is the rest of the article which is basically one long chronology that should be smoothed into three or four paragraphs.  All the information here about the individual elephants is at their website, where it is updated on a regular basis.  http://elephants.com/elecam/

thread_title:  Rewrite 

message: this section from the article space is excessively detailed and formatted more as a list than prose.  Should be trimmed and converted to prose before moving back to article space. RJFJR (talk) 21:08, 22 September 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: I just checked the webpage, and the current census is 10 elephants: 3 Africans, and seven Asians.  I believe it should be noted that though many elephants die at The Elephant Sanctuary, Ms. Buckley's original charge, Tarra, is still kicking it!  After 23 years!  These elephants are "retired" or surrendered because they are old and/or sick, so losses are to be expected.  Most, if not all, live longer and better-quality lives at The Elephant Sanctuary than they probably would have otherwise.  Just sayin'...  rags (talk) 23:18, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
