To report an error you have noticed on today's or tomorrow's Main Page, please add it to the appropriate section below.

Please note the following:

• Where is the error?: The more specific you can be (an exact item, for example "item number 3 on DYK"; or a sentence) the faster an admin can find it.
• Be specific: Errors can be fixed faster when a correction is offered.
• References: Can be helpful, especially when reporting an obscure factual or grammatical error.
• Consensus: Remember that the Main Page usually defers to supporting pages for accuracy or when there is disagreement, so it is best to achieve consensus and make any necessary changes there first.
• Time zones: Note that Coordinated Universal Time is used for the current date and time (00:11 on 20 Jun 2013), and this may not coincide with your local time zone.
• Should I use {{edit protected}}?: No. Using {{edit protected}} here will not give you a faster response, and in fact breaks the template when it is placed directly on the Main Page Errors page instead of on a talk page.
• Done?: Once an error has been fixed, the error report will be removed from this page; please check the page's history to verify that the error has been rectified and for any other comments the administrator may have made.
• No chit-chat: Lengthy discussions should be moved to a suitable location elsewhere.

G8

Blurb says "and greater transparency." To what does that pertain? It's not clear from the blurb. The Rambling Man (talk) 19:28, 19 June 2013 (UTC)

It means greater transparency in the operation of the G8 governments. What do you suggest as an alternate? --ThaddeusB (talk) 20:15, 19 June 2013 (UTC)

would "agreements on the Syrian civil war, on tax evasion, and for greater transparency" clear it up any? --ThaddeusB (talk) 20:17, 19 June 2013 (UTC)

I just don't know what the context of "greater transparency" pertains to in this blurb. Is it the previous two items? Or is it transparency in another context? If it's "greater transparency in the operation between the G8 governments" then it should say that. The Rambling Man (talk) 20:23, 19 June 2013 (UTC)

In the context of politics, "transparency" always (in my experience) means "transparency in the operation of the government", but if you think adding some words will make it clearer, feel free to do so (you are an admin after all). --ThaddeusB (talk) 23:47, 19 June 2013 (UTC)

From the article I would posit that greater transparency relates to the disclosure of tax-avoiding shell companies, and the government funding for mining companies and resources obtained. Stephen 00:11, 20 June 2013 (UTC)
