Hi Diannaa, thank you for this info! The resource I used were officially government websites meant for public use, so I assume that there are no copyright issues? Or does that still apply.

Government works are copyright in most countries. The page from Macedonia is marked as "Copyright © 2019. Ministry Of Foreign Affairs". Government works in Mexico are copyright for 100 yewars from publication. — Diannaa (talk) 19:53, 18 June 2022 (UTC)

Okay thank you for the information! I see that you edited some of the text. Thank you for that. Is there any action item on my side or were all points edited/fixed? Mwkhateeb (talk) 22:37, 18 June 2022 (UTC)

I only checked the content about Macedonia and Mexico. There may be problems with the other content you added. If you have time to check those other edits, that would be perfect. — Diannaa (talk) 13:19, 19 June 2022 (UTC)

Okay no worries. I had another look and fixed the section from Geogria too (added quotation marks and cited the source in-text). Mwkhateeb (talk) 13:58, 27 June 2022 (UTC)
