Hello Aejsing,
I wanted to let you know that I have fixed some minor errors that I noticed on your recent addition to Sweden in the Eurovision Song Contest article. Firstly, the new sentence you included about Swedish songwriters should really be added into the main article and not the lead section. Per WP:LEAD the top paragraphs of any article are suppose to summaries the main bulk of the article, and should not include new data that isn't mentioned elsewhere. I have moved this into the article itself now on your behalf. Also there was a slight spelling error which I have fixed too. When referring to the natives of Sweden we would write it as Swede's and not swedes. The latter version using a lower case S is referring to a vegetable, whereas upper case S means a person(s).
Furthermore, you may wish to be aware that the Project Eurovision is currently hold a debate on the way these articles are stylised. Please click here to participate in the discussion. Regards, Wesley♦Mouse 17:03, 18 September 2012 (UTC)
- Ok, thank you. I wasn't really aware of that. It seemed to me that the lead section and the main article in many cases are more or less the same, especially when it comes to relatively small articles, but I will stick to that distinction in future. Aejsing (talk) 20:54, 18 September 2012 (UTC)
