- Thanks! I'm still figuring out how Wiki works, but have interest in making sure articles are factual and neutral, esp after the recent GE! :P Alverya (talk) 01:17, 26 May 2011 (UTC)
formatting of politicians
Hi! If you see how Wikipedia formats the articles about other politicians, rather than dividing their biographies into "nonpolitical" and "political" sections we generally have a more personalised way of doing it. I am aware this is how the SG Cabinet website might format their articles, but Wikipedia often has a different format. Elle vécut heureuse à jamais (be free) 20:30, 25 May 2011 (UTC)
- Hi, thanks!! i'm still learning. i'll go look at other politicians wiki pages and see what they format it as. then i'll go reformat the pages i edited. :) thanks!! Alverya (talk) 01:27, 26 May 2011 (UTC)
