I think we can take out ref #1. However, its key sentence is: "Local species diversity is directly related to the efficiency with which predators prevent the monopolization of the major environmental requisites by one species". Although terrible prose, it seems to be aiming in the right direction. Macdonald-ross (talk) 13:48, 8 June 2014 (UTC)
- I agree, we probably should remove it. I saw Paine's quote too, but I didn't see it as sufficiently verifying the statement. It's also unnecessary as the second citation does verify the statement. Rus793 (talk) 16:42, 8 June 2014 (UTC)
- I've now replaced it with another ref. Macdonald-ross (talk) 17:26, 8 June 2014 (UTC)
