Talk:Obama projected winner in North Carolina primary, Clinton wins Indiana by narrow margin

Italics
If sources are not to be italicized within the article text - then why are they italicized in the source template? Cirt - (talk) 00:33, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
 * I think because the creators of that template thought all that would be listed in the pub paramater would be newspapers. I find that Wikipedia is pretty good at using italics when appropriate and vice versa. --SVTCobra 00:37, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Do you know of a MOS regarding italics usage, or is this your opinion? It would be nice to clarify it, if it is written somewhere.  Cirt - (talk) 00:40, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
 * No not really. But if you look at The New York Times, you will find that "The New York Times", the newspaper is italicized, while the publisher "The New York Times Company" is not. Wikipedia might have a style guide, but to me it is pretty clear already. I guess it was my strict teachers as I wrote papers in school. --SVTCobra 00:45, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
 * I did not mean a Wikipedia style guide, I meant something previously published on the subject. No worries, not a big deal.  Cirt - (talk) 00:46, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
 * At work we use the The Chicago Manual of Style, but I must admit, I haven't consulted it in years. I was gonna say that I don't know where you could find that online, but then I just found the 2003 version online ... courtesy of Ohio State University at this link: http://library.osu.edu/sites/guides/chicagogd.php It is not long and actually it is specifically on citing sources, and not the whole MoS. Have fun reading (I didn't), cheers --SVTCobra 00:56, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

Title
Think enough sources are reporting in, to re-title this article, or should we wait a bit longer? Cirt - (talk) 01:00, 7 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Go ahead. I am tuned out and not reading headlines anymore tonight. --SVTCobra 01:03, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Changed to Obama projected winner in North Carolina primary, Indiana too early to call per reports from multiple major media sources - but feel free to change it. Cirt - (talk) 01:15, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Why didn't you pubish immediately? (damn, i promised myself I be in bed by now). --SVTCobra 01:23, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Oh, I guess I was deferring to others on that. Cirt - (talk) 02:41, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

OOPs missed your comment, erm the numbers are from wikipedia and the gains are from http://edition.cnn.com/ELECTION/2008/primaries/results/dates/#20080506 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.35.192.193 (talk) 02:47, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Ah - well I still think it is too early to put a table like that in this article for the time being. Cirt - (talk) 03:23, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
