All of the non-working links are now active working links. And the portions that needed citations now have references.
Also, the addition of material regarding the ASCE's Katrina levee investigation makes the article much more balanced. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sheldonville ( talk • contribs) 22:16, 18 November 2015 (UTC)
Most of this article reads like it was taken from the ASCE website promo materials. The "Mission" section repeats info from the ASCE website, and references the ASCE website.
The sole purpose of the ASCE and their vaunted and mendacious infrastructure report is to increase spending on public construction projects. In a world of declining natural resources, the need for highways and such will decrease, not increase. Not every bridge is a death trap... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.162.67.79 ( talk) 16:43, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
This is a great article. Nothing overrepresented. Each fact was referenced with an appropriate source. MarquisJohnHall ( talk) 23:55, 28 April 2018 (UTC)MarquisJohnHall
An anonymous user created a separate article containing the Seven Wonders of the Modern World. I just wanted to alert those that maintain this page. Technically that information should be removed from this page if the new article is retained. -- Dan East 00:53, August 29, 2005 (UTC)
These are especially dubious and I don't see how a city square is an engineering marvel or even the statue. Ufwuct 00:53, 2 December 2007 (UTC)
All of the links that were non-working are now fixed.
Further, the addition of much material, properly cited, regarding the Katrina levee investigation makes this article much more balanced. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sheldonville ( talk • contribs) 22:13, 18 November 2015 (UTC)

The IEEE article is rated by WikiProject Engineering as B-class, Top-importance ... while ASCE is rated equally important, it's is only rated Start-Class ... I would propose to start editing the ASCE article along the lines of the IEEE article as a template but obviously with the ASCE content ... For full disclosure purposes, as a civil engineer, I am a member of the organization, but this is strictly a volunteer activity and I was not requested by ASCE to do this work. Nor, am I receiving any compensation for this work. Risk Engineer ( talk) 16:29, 7 November 2017 (UTC)
Previously the article had been tagged in 2011 and again in 2016 with "Multiple issues - "refimprove"|date=December 2011 ... "advert"|date=March 2016 ... I have worked to rewrite eight of the ten sections to remove promotional material as well as provide additional citations for statements. As noted elsewhere in this page, I am a member of the organization but did these edits on a volunteer basis without compensation. ASCE did not direct or otherwise guide these edits. I have made these edits strictly adhering to Wikipedia requirements that the entry on the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) be neutral, free of marketing and advertorial content, and properly cited for verification of all information added to the entry. I welcome any input, edits, and feedback from the Wikipedia community in regards to the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) page. As I have frequently stated when providing disclosure: if you have any questions about my editing activities, please leave me a message on my User Talk page. I am proud of the work I do and intend that my contributions always make Wikipedia better. Cheers .... Risk Engineer ( talk) 21:08, 11 November 2017 (UTC)
I'm reading the section on here and I think it would be better as its own article. If not, it seems it could fit in a related Katrina article about it. – The Grid ( talk) 03:04, 18 May 2022 (UTC)
