In my view, no map at all would be better than an out-of-date one. I suggest removing it if no one brings us a new one. (I don't know how to do that technical stuff; my experience of dealing with pictures is confined to copying from one Wikipedia page to another.) I've put in a brief geography section as sort of compensation. [[User:Peter Jackson|Peter Jackson]] 11:29, 18 November 2013 (UTC)

Intro

I have changed the lead, which was a poor description. We do not need to reference for such basic concepts.

The remaining gaps

I believe that I have repaired some of the deficiencies in the article of June 2010, but I am aware that others remain. Nothing has been said about foreign policy, defence, crime, or immigration, to mention a few. I am not at all sure about what should be said about any of those, so I will now leave it to others to add whatever is considered appropriate.

Extent

The information I've added on the exact extent of the EU certainly belongs somewhere in the cluster, though not necessarily where I've put it. Note also that I haven't properly verified it as the links in Wikipedia aren't working. They do have an air of plausibility here, though. The map is not always clear or up to date.

Nobel Peace Prize

I've put this in the timeline. Should it be in the main article too? If so where? Peter Jackson 09:57, 13 October 2012 (UTC)

Thank you Peter. I have put a box on the main page, which can probably be replaced by something more formal after the award ceremony.Nick Gardner 12:48, 13 October 2012 (UTC)

Map

In my view, no map at all would be better than an out-of-date one. I suggest removing it if no one brings us a new one. (I don't know how to do that technical stuff; my experience of dealing with pictures is confined to copying from one Wikipedia page to another.)

UK referendum
