IoNA and Council of the Isles?

Do we need to mention IoNA or the Good Friday Agreement institutions?

IoNA will end up being a footnote in history, I think. The British-Irish Council, though, should definitely be covered. Perhaps a 'Foreign Relations' section, to cover that, the EU, the UN and Irish neutrality? Anton Sweeney 09:38, 29 April 2007 (CDT)
Good idea, go for it Anton!W. Frank 12:39, 29 April 2007 (CDT)

CZ:Feedback Requests

This is a good article. To improve it, I would try to make clear where some of the information is from, particularly the Political and economic rankings section. It could be improved if some of the references were named - links 9-14 haven't been named (at the time of writing). Finally, the CIA web site has been updated and the World Factbook links must also be edited. The new link is here. Oliver Smith 14:09, 15 May 2007 (CDT)

Thanks Oliver - will get started on those tomorrow. Anton Sweeney 17:50, 15 May 2007 (CDT)

Demographics - journal citation

The following is the proper citation for the opening part of the 'Demographics' section. The citation template doesn't appear to work properly yet, so putting it here for the moment... (also need to find the ISSN). <ref>{{Citation | last1 = McEvoy | first1 = Brian | author1-link = Brian McEvoy | last2 = Richards | first2 = Martin | author2-link = Martin Richards | last3 = Forster | first3 = Peter | author3-link = Peter Forster | last4 = Bradley | first4 = Daniel | author4-link = Daniel Bradley | title = The ''Longue Durée'' of Genetic Ancestry: Multiple Genetic Marker Systems and Celtic Origins on the Atlantic Facade of Europe | journal = American Journal of Human Genetics | volume = 75 | issue = 4 | pages = 693–702 | date = [[2004-08-12]] | year = 2004 | url = http://www.pubmedcentral.nih.gov/articlerender.fcgi?tool=pubmed&pubmedid=15309688 | id = ISSN }}</ref> Anton Sweeney 17:38, 20 May 2007 (CDT)
