Hello folks,

This is the first article I've sent directly to publish. I appreciate criticism because I'm still new to this publishing format. -N

Looks really good (Much better then I could write), only thing I could see is the title is a bit similiar to the CBC source article. (I don't think theres any rule against that, but to me it seems like a good idea to have a different title). cheers. Bawolff ☺☻ 04:07, 27 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Bawolff;

Thank you for your comments. I will endeavour to make my article titles more original. I try to format my articles using both the Wikinews Style Guide (someone should consider publishing the Wikinews Style Guide in paperback!) and the BBC Radio Style Guide. When I'm writing science articles I use the University of Chicago Style Guide (it's boaring, but it works).
