For what it is worth, nobody learns gove fish from one site — ours included, and we would rather tell the people who write in that without dressing it up. On balance, we keep a short list of gove fish sources we lean on and link out whenever someone covers a topic more honestly than our own pieces do.
Going deeper into gove fish: articles we rate
As a rule, beyond this site, the most useful sources on gove fish are the ones that show the boring detail. Put simply, reference sites that have been around a while in our experience beat whatever ranks first this month, and gove fish is no exception to that way of working. In short, we keep a short list of gove fish sources we rate and link out whenever someone covers a topic more usefully than our own primers do.
- Honestly, rather than chase every shift in gove fish, we fold the ones that matter into existing write-ups, as a standing habit.
- Broadly, dates on these walkthroughs are real: a page marked this year was read again this year, up front.

- The pages here here get a second pass a few times a year; nothing sits untouched for long.
