Talk:Night of the Grizzlies

Page contents not supported in other languages.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Night of the Grizzlies: This is an important book detailing the account that happened in 1967 to two young women in Glacier national Park. It should have it's own Wikipedia page.

This book has a much longer Wiki page already; http://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/User:Haruth/Night_of_the_Grizzlies. This page should therefore be removed or at least include a reference to the larger article. Hambleton (talk) 20:59, 5 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The article you point out is actually part of a user's page. It's not part of Wikipedia. It looks kind of like maybe the user was trying to write a better article.
Although I don't mind the book having an article to itself, the Glacier Park grizzly attacks have been covered in more than one source besides Olsen's book, notably in a PBS documentary made a few years ago. There should really be a longer article on the attacks themselves, not on the Olsen book. TheBlinkster (talk) 19:02, 1 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Prior to Moving...

[edit]

I am struggling to find a reason that this page is named for a book as opposed to the event itself. In the roughly 16k article, only about 1k is related to the book. The entire body of the article is about the attacks, which are far more noteworthy and impactful than the somewhat obscure book about them. If there is a good reason for this (like there is a LOT more book-related info out there just waiting to be included), great; if not, this page should be moved. Please comment here. If there is no good reason, I will move the page on or after 01 September 2024 per WP:AT and WP:NOTRM, but some discussion of the target name is in order. 1967 Glacier National Park Grizzly Attack is a stretch for WP:CONCISE.
