Thank you for your edits to Bush poll data down again. You've done a really good job in adding clarity to the article. irid:t 00:15, 21 March 2006 (UTC)

Wikilinks and thanks
Hey! Thanks for linking Brookings and Gaddy on the Putin article. For future reference, you don't need to use an html link to link to WP. Instead, you can use a wikilink by using the Europe will link directly there. Thanks again! Lyellin 19:15, 29 March 2006 (UTC)

good work on UNSC article
You wrote: use UN news wording rather than CNN for less POV - good work, but in fact, the UN press release itself seems to be a rather biased (rather POV) presentation of the statement by the UNSC - e.g. it misses the first paragraph which is about reaffirming Iran's (and other states parties') right to do exactly what it recommends that Iran temporarily suspend in order to build confidence while negotiation happens. In the internet era, we don't have to rely on press releases for this sort of political statement. Go for the primary source whenever possible (if you have time)! For official institutional statements, it generally just requires a few more clicks and a bit of common sense. Same applies for national laws - rather than relying on press releases, it's often better to go to the source texts themselves, even if they can be quite big documents. http://daccess-ods.un.org/access.nsf/Get?Open&DS=S/PRST/2006/15&Lang=E&Area=UNDOC Boud 23:32, 30 March 2006 (UTC)
