"Notes and references"
[edit]Could you not change the section title to this. There are no notes, so it should only be references. Thanks, Number 57 14:21, 18 October 2013 (UTC)
- Also, using {{reflist|2}} when there are fewer than 10 references is not advisable - it spreads them out too far. Cheers, Number 57 14:23, 18 October 2013 (UTC)
- What about the section names "External links" and containing only one link? In both cases, the reason is the recommended name from WP:ORDER :) Paul Itiqu Fedtr (talk) 14:23, 18 October 2013 (UTC).
- If you read the WP:FNNR section, you will see: "Title: Editors may use any section title that they choose. The most frequent choice is "References"; other articles use "Notes", "Footnotes", or "Works cited" (in diminishing order of popularity) for this material." Number 57 14:25, 18 October 2013 (UTC)
- If "Editors may use any section title that they choose", why do you start this whole discussion? Just add useful content to our encyclopaedia instead :) Paul Itiqu Fedtr (talk) 14:33, 18 October 2013 (UTC).
- Please be aware that if you make an edit and another editor reverts it, it is generally not deemed acceptable to continue to revert - you are expected to abide by the WP:Bold, revert, discuss cycle, and continued reverting is considered edit warring and will probably lead to a block. If your edits are reverted, you are expected to gain consensus for your change rather than plough on regardless. Cheers, Number 57 16:05, 18 October 2013 (UTC)
- What revert are you speaking of? Paul Itiqu Fedtr (talk) 16:06, 18 October 2013 (UTC).

You are also putting stuff in the wrong order. See also sections come before Bibliography and references. Number 57 16:16, 18 October 2013 (UTC)
- However, in case I'm coming across as rather harsh, well done on creating the articles about the different types of Swiss referendums. I am currently adding links into all the referendum articles, and might try and reference the new articles you created later. Number 57 16:20, 18 October 2013 (UTC)

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
