nationmaster.com as a reference[edit]

This isn't an acceptable reference. The nationmaster.com page is just a copy of our own article on the subject. Everything under http://nationmaster.com/encyclopedia/ is a copy of Wikipedia. --Versa geek 06:35, 4 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

eww.. I just realized how rude this sounds, sorry.. Nationmaster is one of many mirrors of our content. All mirrors should have a reference or link back to Wikipedia somewhere on the page. The links on Nationmaster are all the way at the bottom of the page. If you edit or read Wikipedia frequently, you can usually pick up on the writing style & know to look for the GFDL link back to Wikipedia. I appreciate your efforts to add sources. --Versa geek 06:51, 4 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
