Limitation to Sub-Saharan Africa

[edit]

Should not Africa be treated as a geographic rather than a political notion, with the content currently residing in Region-Middle East moved (or at least copied) to here? Thanks, BrekekekexKoaxKoax (talk) 00:47, 28 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Citing cables

[edit]

Suggestion: use non-wikileaks sources for notability, and the cables themselves as direct sources either for direct quotes and/or to make sure that the reader has easy access to make his/her own judgment. Suggested citation style:

  • <ref name="01CITYNAME1234">{{cite document| last =| first =| authorlink =| coauthors =| title =| id={{WikiLeaks cable|01CITYNAME1234}} |work =| publisher =[[WikiLeaks]]| date =| url = |format =| doi =| accessdate = |archiveurl= |archivedate= |deadurl=no }}</ref>
  • webcitation can be used for archiveurl and archivedate
