my first question is, is Tsagaropoulou part of her name, ie does she have a double-barrelled name in the style of, say, Sam Taylor-Wood ? I think so. so we need to name the page correctly, as at the moment there are spaces either side of the hyphen:

hi Yiorgos,

it's Barch here. i just saw that you've been adding pages from Greece. we'd like to have all the MEP pages in one single format. it's very simple once you get used to it. i have just edited the [[Stavros Lambrinidis]] page - small corrections like the bullets in vertical list items (Affiliations, Curriculum Vitae, etc), and the Resources bit. that page looks great - if you could have a look what changes i have made and stick to the format, it would be great :) i'm busy with my dissertation and not doing much with MEPedia, but you can always contact me if u have any questions. my e-mail is barch09@gmail.com. thanks again, and keep up the good work!

Hello Yiorgos

Welcome to SpinProfiles. Just a few points of style. When doing articles on the Greek MEPs, we need to make sure that caps are where they should be, eg "Greek" not 'greek", full stops are in place, no spare space at end of brackets etc.

So:

Stavros Lambrinidis (Born on 6 February 1962, Athina ) is an MEP from the greek party Panellinio Socialistiko Kinima (PA.SO.K)

should be

Stavros Lambrinidis (born on 6 February 1962, Athina) is an MEP from the Greek political party Panellinio Socialistiko Kinima (PA.SO.K).

also I assume that Athina is what we call Athens? If so, we should say Athens.

also where you have

Declaration of Financial Interest

Nothing to declare [http://www.europarl.europa.eu/ep-dif/28576_15-01-2009.PDF]

can you make it into a full ref and code it so it goes in the refs at the foot of page? see A Guide to Referencing http://www.spinprofiles.org/index.php/SpinProfiles:A_Guide_to_Referencing

but in brief, it should be something like, e.g.

Nothing to declare<ref>"[http://www.europarl.europa.eu/ep-dif/28576_15-01-2009.PDF Register of Financial Interests]", European Parliament, April 2008, accessed 21 May 2009</ref>

then you will notice that the ref goes to the foot of the page and numbers itself automatically.

could you go through all your articles and implement these changes? It could well be that these are works in progress and that you are planning to do all this, in which case, sorry for jumping the gun!!

thanks for your work on these guys.

almost there

Hi Yiorgos

We are almost there with the refs. Just a couple more points.

In http://www.spinprofiles.org/index.php/Rodi_Kratsa_-_Tsagaropoulou

my first question is, is Tsagaropoulou part of her name, ie does she have a double-barrelled name in the style of, say, Sam Taylor-Wood ? I think so. so we need to name the page correctly, as at the moment there are spaces either side of the hyphen:

Rodi_Kratsa_-_Tsagaropoulou

where it needs to be

Rodi_Kratsa-Tsagaropoulou

As soon as you let me know I can do this, I will do it -- I don't want to edit a page that you are working on at same time, as it may mess you up by creating an edit conflict.

also the refs: Nothing to declare<ref>http://www.europarl.europa.eu/ep-dif/39319_17-02-2009.PDF European Parliament, April 2008, accessed 21 May 2009</ref>

needs to have the url in square brackets ending in a space, then the title of the doc, something like:

Nothing to declare<ref>[http://www.europarl.europa.eu/ep-dif/39319_17-02-2009.PDF Title of the doc goes here], European Parliament, April 2008, accessed 21 May 2009</ref>

this way, the title of the doc becomes the weblink! I would have put the title of the doc in myself but I see it's in Greek... I would translate the Greek title into English.

Also "(Born 1956)" when it comes in the middle of a sentence should have lower case "b", thus:

Joe Smith (born 1956, London) is a British MEP...

Please go through all your articles and 'harmonise' them in this way.

Many thanks. I know all this seems fiddly but once one gets the hang of it, it becomes second nature. It takes most of us some time to get right.
