Good start

edit

That's a good start. Two things you'll want to add to this are blue hyperlinks and citations. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 15:03, 9 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

Actually, the section needs to be rewritten due to WP:COPYVIO concerns. Copy & paste jobs are not acceptable. Another editor has addressed this problem when commenting on work of another group, please see here. Also, please see my review linked below. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 03:00, 15 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

Hey, I noticed one of your recent edits to Weddings in the United States had a referencing error in it. I've fixed it for you, but so you know - this is what you did: <ref><ref>Insert footnote text here</ref></ref> National Marriage Project, The State of our Unions, 2006, and this is what it should have looked like: <ref>National Marriage Project, The State of our Unions, 2006</ref>.
