OECD mapEstonia is now a full member of the OECD. This map should reflect that. Just letting you know in case you feel like updating it. Cheers. Pristino (talk) 02:55, 21 December 2010 (UTC)
national electoral calendarI see your point about the cook is., but you didnt respond about the american "colony" election from nov 7. I removed them to the local as its not a state by any stretch. are you okay with it?(Lihaas (talk) 17:15, 21 December 2010 (UTC)).
EU listing/rankingI know that in the past there were multiple discussion about whether the EU should be mentioned (with an — instead of number) in "List of countries by GDP/area/population" and in other similar cases (infoboxes, templates, etc.) that deal with states, territories, etc. The arguments against that I remember were mostly around "EU is not a country/state" and "If we list EU, then we should list AU and other organizations" (referring to continental unions or trade blocs or international organizations in general). Recently I had some related discussions (point 2 here, here) and also the related issue here about the "total number of entities conducting diplomatic relations/recognition". Basically here I tried to summarize the arguments in favor of listing it (and setting a criteria for listing other organizations/unions). I write to you, because I think that this issue should be addressed at some central place - for all lists/rankings, so that we don't have to go over the same discussion separately at each place. Could you arrange such discussion or point me where to raise the issue? Alinor (talk) 10:28, 26 December 2010 (UTC)

Notes 3.3.2.1Hey Nightstallion. I think your paragraphs around secession etc. may need updating/editing: "Southern Sudan is allowed to hold a referendum on independence from Sudan in 2011, according to the Comprehensive Peace Treaty signed on 9 January 2005. Simultaneously, status referenda will be held. These include Abyei (North Kurdufan-Northern Sudan with special administrative status or North Bahr el Ghazal-Southern Sudan), South Kurdufan (join Northern Sudan or Southern Sudan) and Blue Nile (join Northern Sudan or Southern Sudan). (cf. Image:Regions of Sudan.png)" doktorb wordsdeeds 21:56, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

Ras LanufWhat do you suggest we do? Since it looks like Gaddafi may retake Ras Lanuf in a day or so and there has been fighting there for the last four days, should we create an article named Second battle of Ras Lanuf or should we reopen the old one and say when the rebels took it it was phase one and now, two days later, it's phase two?EkoGraf (talk) 17:10, 10 March 2011 (UTC)

Padania needs an adminHi Nightstallion. Since January, User:Enok has made huge changes to the Padania article. Some were good, others were not accepted by other users (at least four: Filippo83, Keith 64, Dans and I, plus one or two IP users). We had a long time appeasing Enok and accepting his advices, as the article's history and the talk testify. For some strange reason he continues to remove the material he doesn't like from the article. Filippo83 and I started to rollback him, but nobody of us wants an edit war. Keith 64 showed up in talk page to urge him to stop. In the last case Enok removed opinion polls and the Padanian flag proposed by Lega Nord. I rollbacked him, but things can't go on like this. The discussion is too long and I don't want you to read it all, but can you show up and calm down Enok? --Checco (talk) 04:41, 19 March 2011 (UTC) The Signpost: 21 March 2011

Constituent Assemblies and ConventionsIn contrast, I am very strongly against stating it - I think it makes the templates look odd. The reason I have always included them without a note is because in almost every case I know about the Constituent Assembly acted as a parliament once elected. Nevertheless, if they are to be marked, perhaps using an asterix and the |below bar would be a nicer solution? Number 57 20:24, 14 April 2011 (UTC)

interview requestHello, My name is Natalia Olaru and I am a final year master student in the Corporate Communication programme at the Aarhus School of Business in Denmark. I am currently working on my final paper on the topic of the motivation of users to create content on collaborative media websites, the focus being Wikipedia. As a sample I chose the English and Danish portals. I would like to invite you for an online interview on the topic of what motivates you, as a user, to participate in editing and creating articles for this platform. Your real identity, and wikipedia account will be kept confidential through the paper. I plan on doing the actual interviews in the period between 6st and the 15th of May via Skype, MSN, Google Talk or Yahoo Messenger. I am, however, open to other channels of communication too. Please let me know if you would like to participate in this interview and the preferred channel.

I'm not quite sure what you mean? Yes, I'd love to have all of these articles expanded beyond the "will take place on" and the adding of results afterwards, but my time is limited... What do you mean by "srt"? And let's just say I don't agree that Abkhazia&South Ossetia are the same situation as Kosovo. —Nightstallion 12:29, 22 May 2011 (UTC) The Signpost: 23 May 2011
