Re: PROJECT
editHey Kate - if you want to change a lot of stuff from what we put on the initial outline - please feel free to do so! We just put down things we thought might be relevant, if after doing research you find something else, please fix it! lol. thanks Rgg6 (talk) 03:48, 17 October 2009 (UTC)
Good start
editThis is a good start, but your additions need referencing (each paragraph, and preferably each sentence should have an inline citation), you also need to add wiki hyperlinks. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 18:22, 2 November 2009 (UTC)
Re:European Coal and Steel Community
editCompare: European Coal and Steel Community to European Coal and Steel Community (ECSC). Do you see the difference? --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 17:56, 5 November 2009 (UTC)
Bunching refs
editSee example: [1]. Read more: Wikipedia:CITE#Footnote_system. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 20:49, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
Re: First World
editKate -
How do you think I can make my section more specific to the first world?? There is very little information about globalization that is "first world" specific? I'm not really sure how else to tailor this to the first world... JFA7 (talk) 04:16, 9 November 2009 (UTC)
Hey Kate! May I ask why you deleted with "Varying Definitions" section? Rgg6 (talk) 16:41, 12 November 2009 (UTC)
- Nvm, I found where you moved it to! Rgg6 (talk) 16:42, 12 November 2009 (UTC)
Hey Kate, I think you might've accidentally removed the end of the table in First World, which caused the rest of the article to become part of the table. Here is what I did to fix it (that } is more important than it seems). Cheers, Nikkimaria (talk) 18:55, 12 November 2009 (UTC)
Hey Kate! I fixed some of your links that were "broken." Just make sure you include a </ref> at the end of your links. JFA7 (talk) 18:25, 15 November 2009 (UTC)
File copyright problem with File:EU Flag.jpg
editThank you for uploading File:EU Flag.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Skier Dude (talk) 06:47, 14 November 2009 (UTC)
Environmental Impact
editHey, I posted this on the First World page as well as contacted you by other means :), but I thought I'd cover my bases and say yet again that I deleted your paragraph under Environmental Impact. But I really didn't want to! If you have any sources, I'd be more than happy to undo my edit (or you could of course) and add them in. I just figured something had to be done because of our GA nomination. I did try to search for sources, but I couldn't get anything reliable enough, and I couldn't search through enough of the books and articles I found. Jsf26 (talk) 06:45, 18 November 2009 (UTC)
re:Good article status and extra credit
editFor extra credit, you can do either - start a new article or improve existing ones. It's up to you, as long as the subject is related to the sociology and globalization. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 18:49, 22 November 2009 (UTC)
Close paraphrasing
editSome of your contributions, for example in the First_World#The_European_Union section, may violate Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. Please take care to rewrite such passages in your own words. Thanks, --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 20:52, 24 November 2009 (UTC)
- I believe it has been improved, yes. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 07:39, 5 December 2009 (UTC)
