Raising Geese 101

This article has some nice basic starting information, but could use some fleshing out.
Not a lot of in-depth info, but a good starting point for researching / selecting geese.
While the photographs included of the geese were nice, the information presented in the article was not very informative and presented in a manner that I can only describe as "elementary". Quite frankly Wikipedia would present more information about the various varieties of geese such as breed history, weights, traditional versus modern use, average eggs produced in a season, etc.

Additionally there were a lot of grammatical errors such as: run-on sentences, incomplete sentences, lack of appropriate punctuation, improper use of conjunctions, etc. There were also some spelling errors.

While I realize everyone doesn't have a Master's Degree in English, it is my opinion that an author should proof read or have someone else proof read their work before "publishing". Quite frankly the article presented more questions than answers about geese and their care. I certainly wouldn't title the article "Geese Keeping 101" as that implies it is an in-depth discussion on the husbandry and breeding of geese.

The answers to questions in the last portion of the article also read as personal opinion without reason or facts to back the statements up.
Helpful basic info for people new to geese.

Nice overview of geese!

Author uses sex-linked and auto sexing in the article. I can't tell if They do not understand the difference or if some geese breeds are auto sexing while some breeders cross breeds to make sexlinks. Pictures do not seem to support either
