Removal of Scotland from 'Other Countries' section

I've removed Scotland from the other countries section. Whoever added them stated that Scotland may debut in 2015 if they gained independence. This fact is actually incorrect. In July 2013 it was already noted and verified that if Scotland were to say yes to independence in the 2014 Referendum, that their independence status would not come into force until 2016 - and thus based on that verified fact it would make it impossible for a 2015 debut.

Good decision. Only sourced material in that section.--BabbaQ (talk) 23:24, 10 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Host city confirmed

According to this Eurovision.tv interview, ORF (Austrian broadcaster) have confirmed Vienna will be the host city. Wes Mᴥuse 01:47, 11 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Great. Some sort of record :)--BabbaQ (talk) 10:26, 11 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I still think it's a bit too early, and maybe not 100% agreed it will be in Vienna. -- [[ axg // ✉ ]] 12:16, 11 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

perhaps a likely participants list should be added

many of the countries is likely to participate again. norway for example is already discussing next year`s selection. another suggestion is that the next year link should be marked in red until the article ia created.84.208.60.156 (talk) 12:59, 11 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
