On Iowa Democratic caucuses, 2008, which you created or substantially expanded. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page .

I notice you reverted the inclusion of all candidates tabulated as receiving votes in the Democratic Primary. I believe this is mistaken because you have thereby switched to an incomplete recording of votes which is not the official total. The source for the votes was the New Hampshire Secretary of State's official certification: http://www.sos.nh.gov/presprim2008/dpressum.htm, and that is now final and no further votes can be added except through the recount process. In effect your change goes to an incorrect number of votes.

I don't know why the NH Secretary of State includes votes cast for candidates for the Republican primary in the Democratic tabulation but he most certainly does. I have asked about it but the most likely explanation is that, if a voter wishing to vote in the Republican primary accidentally puts their ballot paper into the Democratic primary ballot box, then it is counted as a valid vote in the Democratic primary.

Myself, and only 2 or so other people are active on the Iowa wiki project. what exactly is involved in a peer review, without me having to read a long wiki page. is it just like a good article review?

well i'll just stop being lazy, and read up on it. do you live in iowa, or just doing a political article? also, since you're new, if you need help, or have questions, feel free to ask me!

I'm doing some minor clean ups, under "Delegate allocation" where it says governor, house, and senate...since it is the governor, do the other 2 refer to state or federal house/senate? I can fix it for you, otherwise we will have an edit conflict. done editing...it looks good to me though!

Yes, I think it is Good Article ready...I'm not sure what is needed for FAs, but you should submit it for a GA

Sometimes its nice (and satisfying) to see what someone else can do to perk up an article you've started. I would never thought of re-phrasing it that way and it reads much better :) Thanks!

Hi! Thanks for the suggestions :) I tried to get a bit of that but had trouble because I couldn't get access to the information. For example I know there was a court case between Pandora and a rival company over copyright but apart from this I can't find a reliable source for it because I don't have access to the actual case file. And stuff on the actual company is hard to find - not least because of the language barrier.

I responded to your concern at the above FLC.--

Hi. I noticed your question at the village pump. Click your top task bar "Tools" and "Internet Options" then select "COlors". Click the box to get the tick off standard windows colours and choose white for text and the background black. Then come out click "Internet Options" again and this time select "Accessibility" then tick "Ignore colors specified on web pages" . By doing this it should customise wikipedia and other sites however you wish them to be. You can also increase standard font size and change the fonts by this if you werne't aware.

Blackle generates more co² then it saves. Not only do most people have LCDs these days (where the black output makes no difference to energy consumption), but they have a server sitting in a building somewhere, consuming electricity so they can forward traffic to google (thus involving more network routers and a longer path) under the guise of saving the planet. Another shining example of people worried about seeming to do something rather than actually doing something productive. Sorry to appear harsh but flag waving exercises where people do things to say they are helping some cause but what they do doesn't help at all (and often hinders) really gets my goat.
