sweden election article[edit]
can u help check whether the swedish language sources i've moved to the Sources section are proper? atleast one of them needs fixing. once all of the in-text links are placed correctly in the article, the in-text links need to be removed. thanks. Doldrums 14:38, 18 September 2006 (UTC)
- in-text links are the ones in the body of the article, the ones that look like this: [1]. i think all of them are now also listed in the sources section. just check it over once, and then all the in-text links can be removed. Doldrums 14:46, 18 September 2006 (UTC)
I’m trying to add this source, but the captcha is broken for me, so I can’t:

Done. Thanks for the source. Tamino 15:20, 18 September 2006 (UTC)
Listing articles on your userpage[edit]
I see you're another one of us who is going to keep track of contributions, why not use Template:Wikinews for this, same as you'd do in the Related news section of an article? --Brian McNeil / talk 10:25, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
DUP article[edit]
Thoughts on the DUP article using QuoteLeft and QuoteRight? I know you meant editorial balance on the talk, but do you agree the page layout looks more balanced now too? --Brian McNeil / talk 10:25, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
