Outdoor Survival
I think this book is looking pretty good right now. Someone else should look at it for featured book status. Lonjers 23:50, 22 March 2007 (UTC)


 * [[Image:Symbol comment vote.svg|15px]] Comment Well, its really a pamphlet rather than a book. Useful no doubt. If the title said "Short guide to outdoor survival" I would definitely support. RobinH 10:11, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
 * [[Image:Symbol support vote.svg|15px]] Support - looks pretty good. Perhaps RobinH's comment above is is true too, however, so maybe it should be renamed. Some minor formatting and spelling problems that could be caught and fixed as you review this book. Webaware talk 03:18, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
 * [[Image:Symbol oppose vote.svg|15px]] Oppose It needs a little more work and an attempt to complete the missing parts. Xania [[Image:Flag_of_Italy.svg|15px]]talk 20:45, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
 * [[Image:Symbol oppose vote.svg|15px]] Oppose I would say that the book is 90% bullet points, which isn't really a good method of presenting large quantities of material. Beyond that, alot of the statements in this book could use some explanation, why do we or don't we do something in a particular situation? It's not enough to simply say "do this", but you need to say why so people understand. --Whiteknight (talk) (projects) 17:26, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
 * [[Image:Symbol oppose vote.svg|15px]] Oppose This book feels kind of unfinished. Photos might help. Also a tighter focus on "survival" and weeding out some of the general outdoorsy tips might make it more focused. There is some useful advice in there though, and this book with a little editing could be a featured book. -- xixtas talk 03:11, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

Not done One support vote, two opposed, plenty of time has elapsed. I'll archive this in a little while. --Whiteknight (talk) 00:19, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
