Welcome and starting pages
hi, Joabbess,

Welcome to SourceWatch! I'm writing because you've started a number of new articles (Adriana Bolchini Gaigher, Adrian Cohen, Adelson Institute for Strategic Studies and Abdullah Muhsin) that only contain one or more links to other websites. We encourage people starting new "stub" articles to at least include a few sentences on the topic, along with links to relevant pages on SourceWatch. That provides a better initial framework, to which other people can add.

For more on our website policies, please see SourceWatch:Contributing, SourceWatch:References and Help:How to add an articles and resources section.

Thanks!

Hi Joabbess
Hi and welcome to SourceWatch. One small point -- when adding references can you add the full reference details (author, url, title, publication and date). This makes the references much more useful for readers than just the url, title and publication. See Help:References for more details. And it is also owrth adding at least one category on new pages such as the country of the person or organisation. I have gone through and tidied up the pages you did recently but I'd like to avoid having to do that again. with thanks --Bob Burton 17:01, 5 May 2009 (EDT)
