#[[Malawian food crisis]] start-class, ranked top-importance. This article, as noted on the article page, is currently out-of-date and only has information up to 2005. I plan on updating the article to reflect the changes that have occurred since 2005. I would also like to look more deeply at the food crisis of the early 2000s and expound on the political, social, economic, and agricultural causes and the cultural, health, and policy effects of the food crisis. For more information about my plan to update the article, please look at the talk page of [[Malawian food crisis]]. I plan on drawing from scholarly sources (articles from academic journals about the early 2000s food crisis), reports from NGOs (UN, ActionAid, etc.), and some news articles. Although I would, ideally, like to draw from only scholarly sources, not much information is available about the current food crisis beyond news articles and some reports from NGOs. Please let me know if you have any feedback on my proposed edits, or any suggestions as to what other reliable sources I could look at, either on this WikiProject page or the talk page of [[Malawian food crisis]].[[User:Avw1|Avw1]] ([[User talk:Avw1|talk]]) 14:57, 25 February 2014 (UTC) |

- Chad Cameroon Petroleum Development and Pipeline Project I am working on this article for a class at Syracuse University, and would appreciate any advice or insights as I go along. Katheb246 (talk) 23:03, 30 March 2011 (UTC)
- The existing article is actually at Chad–Cameroon Petroleum Development and Pipeline Project (the difference is just a hyphen). I've created a redirect for convenience, so that red link is now a blue link. If I could offer a pointer, it would be sources. Find more sources which mention the project. The World Bank and IFC appear to have some good background information although there's a handful of relevant case-studies &c in Google Scholar too. Beware of websites which "mirror" content from wikipedia (maybe a copy of an older version of that page). Looks interesting; good luck with it! bobrayner (talk) 00:07, 31 March 2011 (UTC)
- Basankusu I've written the whole thing apart from the opening credits - and supplied the photos - there must be someone else who can provide a different perspective. It's quite an important hub in the DRC, especially for conservation. Francis Hannaway 18:37, 31 October 2010 (UTC) (talk)
