== Referencing ==

This article has a confusingly long list of references mixed with in-line URL links. But it does not have inline citation which would help the reader identify which items have been sourced from independent publications, and which items are "as stated by NGOWatch".
It would help greatly if, before the article grows bigger, it changed to using <nowiki><ref></ref></nowiki> markup for all references.

Cleaned up most of the references. Some are broken and some dead. Also the article relies heavily on the AEI and NGOWatch websites which are biased sources.-----] 03:30, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

Quotes

The heavy use of quotes in this articles causes flow problems. It makes the article read more like a collection of quotes than an encyclopedia article. -----Adimovk5 03:32, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

Just as conservative groups argue that philanthropic foundations that fund social justice or environmental programs have strayed from their founders donor intent, so too they seek to portray NGOs as having strayed from their original objectives. "Many groups have strayed beyond their original mandates and assumed quasi-governmental roles. Increasingly, non-governmental organizations are not just accredited observers at international organizations, they are full-fledged decision-makers," they complain.

This is a very confusing paragraph. Is the 'they' in the last sentence referring to the unnamed 'conservative groups' of the first sentence or to NGOwatch?– — · § llorton: 71.166.45.180 (talk) 13:53, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

NGOs currently on the Watch List

This list should probably include only the the most prominent NGOs. If NGOWatch already tracks 160 NGOs, and will probably watch more, some trimming should be done. Or maybe the section should be dropped completely. -----Adimovk5 03:36, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
