Talk:Animal Rights

Neutral Point of View
You have to wonder how hard it is going to be to achieve a neutral point of view in this book, when the topic is so hotly contested. (See link WB:NPOV for Wikibooks policy.) Is Animal Rights a field of knowledge that can be taught in a text book anyway, or is is more of a political movement like the Right to Life movement? I don't think there are Wikibooks on Abortion or Gay Marriage for example, and this book seems to present similar difficulties. Recent Runes (talk) 12:55, 19 June 2008 (UTC)

Vivisection or Animal Testing?
Vivisection in most dictionaries is defined as surgical operations on living animals, and in common usage is associated with pain or cruelty towards the animal. Animal Testing is a broader term which includes vivisection and other uses of animals in research and testing which do not involve surgery. As this book is supposed to be unbiased, it is preferable to use the more neutral terminology. Recent Runes (talk) 14:10, 19 June 2008 (UTC)

Separate from Animal Welfare

Different members handling different tasks
If different members handle different tasks, then the whole book will become a piece of collage, with different people writing in different tones and styles. Is it not possible to let all members collaborate on areas that interest them? Kayau (talk &#124; email &#124; contribs) 02:35, 26 September 2010 (UTC)
