- Does Reference 8 cover all this ---> "The Supreme Court oversees several committees that administer the entire judicial branch of the state government. The Board of Law Examiners is chaired by a Justice of the court and is charged with setting standards for admission to the Indiana Bar Association, and testing applicants for qualifications to practice law in the state. A Justice also chairs the Disciplinary Commission, which is responsible for taking actions against members of the bar for misconduct, including revoking licenses to practice law. The Indiana Commission for Continuing Legal Education, which continually educates members of the Indiana Bar Association, reports directly to the Supreme Court. The Judicial Nominating and Qualification Commissions are chaired by the Chief Justices and is responsible for selecting candidates to fill court vacancies and recommend retirement for judges due to age or disability. The entire court takes part in the annual Judicial Conference of Indiana, attended by all the state's judges, who recommends improvements to the Supreme Court and the judiciary. The court is also responsible for implementing all laws passed by the General Assembly that affect the judiciary"?

- Thank you for your review, I should be able to address these concerns this evening. Charles Edward 23:56, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
- Commas are added.
- Yes, that ref is for that entire portion. It links to a summarization of all the committees, and with links to more detailed info on each committee.
- I believe everything is either cite web or cite book except the refs to the Indiana Code and Constitution. Are those what you are referring too, or is it something else?
- I'm referring to ref. 21, I believe that should be used with the cite web template. -- ThinkBlue (Hit BLUE) 19:25, 8 October 2008 (UTC)
