Wesha

Hi, I'm Sean, and I've been doing some work on the South Ossetian article as well.

I just wanted to say welcome to you here at the wikinews, and thank you for your changes to the article. I hope you are not too angry with me for changing some of them again, but I think it is easier to use information or citations from english language articles than from foreign language ones. Of course you may still use information from foreign language websites! If there is anything you think is important that you want to add, and have not seen on an english page please do that :). Regards Sean

P.S. if you do not agree with my removing/changing your text, you can of course say so on the [page of the article], I can change my opinion as well :). Regards Sean Heron (talk) 12:57, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

No, I think your edits make sense. I didn't have the API information at the moment. -- Wesha (talk) 13:27, 8 August 2008 (UTC)
