Hi there, I'm curious about a few aspects of this article. First, the introduction has no citation despite making a strong claim that the forest has not been used sustainably. Also, the article seems to draw heavily from the website "Amazônia da gente." My last concern is about the source by Jeroônimo Garcia de Santana - the link does not lead to any webpage. Hoping these can be resolved! Bshenouda (talk) 22:08, 18 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • @Bshenouda: The introduction just summarises the key points in the rest of the article. Moisés Vieira Fernandes is the cited source for sustainability not being achieved. The "Amazônia da gente" website is used for two uncontroversial assertions: In 1992 the state of Rondônia agreed to implement Planafloro under a loan agreement with the IBRD, and on 1 December 2010 the federal government transferred the Rio Madeira B property to the state. The Jeroônimo Garcia de Santana citation links to a Word document holding the decree. If you click on the link it should download the document to your PC from the Rondônia government website. The same information is given on the ISA site under the Historico Juridico tab. The sources often overlap and confirm each other. Aymatth2 (talk) 23:12, 18 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
