Kennan-Lukacs

Dear Vints

The book is an series of letters between George F. Kennan and John Lukacs, so I suppose you could listed it in either the publications or reference section. I placed in the reference section because I am not entirely sure if Kennan ultimately wanted his letters to Lukacs published, and secondly it was Lukacs who edited his correspondence. An search through the library database shows Lukacs listed as the primarly author, and Kennan listed as the secondary author. For my money, I would place this book in the reference section. I hope I have answered your concerns.

Have an nice day!

So maybe neither is really good. According to the discussion at Citing sources is should be under "Further reading" or "Bibliography". "Sources that were not consulted by editors working on the article should be listed in a 'Further reading' section." I suppose the Publications section is only for the books Kennan wrote.

Main Page Featured Article

Hello, I noticed you added Global Warming to the mainpage featured article template for June 16, this has now been reverted as it is not the procedure that is taken to place these articles on the main page. If you wish to suggest an article for the main page, please go to Wikipedia:Today's featured article/requests and request its placement there. Thank You. -- SmthManly / ^ManlyTalk / ^{ManlyContribs} 13:13, 1 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I get it, only Raul654 can schedule the articles on the main page.Vints 13:44, 1 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, that is the current procedure. -- SmthManly / ^ManlyTalk / ^{ManlyContribs} 14:05, 1 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Allende/Pinochet

Hello Vints, I see that you appear to agree with my opposition to Mike18xx's edits on the Allende page. If you have the time, I encourage you to visit and weigh in on the current debate on the Pinochet page. Thanks. --(Mingus ah um 19:45, 20 July 2006 (UTC))[reply]
