Talk:Scenario for impeachment of Lula raised in Brazil

This story was written by an Wikinews reporter (Carlosar) who lives in Brazil.

Nice article! Are there sources for this article -- other than the cited Wikinews articles? If this is Original Reporting, some notes here would be helpful... --Chiacomo (talk) 28 June 2005 04:57 (UTC)

This is a piece of first-hand journalism and I tried not to be influenced by the other newspapers. I used some material from the previous articles. Anyway you are right and I will put some sources here. Although this is first-hand material, I can add some documents suporting the story.--Carlosar 28 June 2005 12:22 (UTC)

I think that we could create a category for this and the other articles about the political crisis in Brazil. What do you think? --Carlosar 28 June 2005 12:22 (UTC)

Below are some documents. Should we put them in the article at the sources section? --Carlosar 28 June 2005 14:02 (UTC)
