Blanchardb , I know this is a strange request. I'm asking for your help to improve Timeline of the burrito because I know you are a responsible editor. I'm not looking for someone to support my attempts to improve this article. The article simply needs attention of more neutral parties prior to its merger with the main burrito article, as it is currently being protected by an individual that does not want to accept any changes. Please feel free to ignore this request if you are not interested. — fcsuper (How's That?, That's How!) (Exclusionistic Immediatist ) — 16:53, 23 November 2010 (UTC)

Bonjour Blanchardb, I started to translate this article from Hungarian in August but I had to leave it. Meanwhile you put an advert label on it. I'm wondering why, I just gave a direct translation of the original article, but I'm ready to rewrite it if you could tell me how. Ferike333 (talk) 11:09, 28 November 2010 (UTC)
- It's written in a tone that you'd expect to find on the zoo's own literature. Sentences such as "The year 1996 brought a breakthrough to the zoo" and "More and more species are given place in the zoo, some of them are real curiosity" have no place in encyclopedic coverage. -- Blanchardb -Me•MyEars•MyMouth- timed 15:11, 28 November 2010 (UTC)
- I see. The first one I would paraphrase to The year 1996 was very important in the zoo's history, and the other one More and more species are given place in the zoo some of which count as a curiosity in Hungary. How about them? Ferike333 (talk) 08:58, 1 December 2010 (UTC)
- Actually I'm afraid the Hungarian version was simply typed in from their brochure... I think I'll label it as 'in process' or something. If you happen to know the right template, would you put it there please? I'll make a full translation of the hu. article and then rewrite it in an encyclopedic way.
