Dubious?

This needs clarification:

the 99.74 is in the source. (maybe its updated since the original post). It is consultative because as a referendum not sanctioned in the centre (and per the comments for the reasons of the referendum) it was to adjuge in an unnofficial capacity. Ie- the advice of the people of north kosovo. It was the writ of the state though

The "respects" in the background section seems pov-ish which i believe adhere is better.

I moved the announcement of the referendum awy from the election since that deals with election day and the restults itself. Background seems pertinent, though a "date" could do as well.

"borisloc" popped out of nowhere and was obviosu vandalism that was overlooked.

"inorder " indicates the reason thereof vs. absolute fact (its the opinion of Sebs in north kosovo)

And the referendum is not IN serbia proper (disputed it maybe, but the kosovo cat exists)Lihaas (talk) 08:44, 21 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
