They don't really say anything about the current content of the Reisman article, so they should either be used as refs for the Free Trade Agreement article, or used when or if the Reisman article is significantly expanded. Anchoress · Weigh Anchor · Catacomb 02:40, 11 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Just trying to help. —BradV 02:40, 11 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sure they'll be very helpful once the article is expanded. It's just a bit disingenuous to have refs for content that isn't in the article yet. Hope you didn't take offence, I didn't mean to slight your efforts. Anchoress · Weigh Anchor · Catacomb 03:21, 11 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Don't worry, I wasn't offended. I've just found, generally, that throwing a couple of references at the bottom of an article - especially one that's nominated for deletion or tagged as non-notable - gives people a head start on the article. —BradV 03:30, 11 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You could always throw them into an "External links" section until they are used as references. Cheers, CP 03:39, 11 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

That's a good idea, but they're all from the same site. I wonder if NYT has a search feature that would allow us to link to a search result on the site? Anchoress · Weigh Anchor · Catacomb 04:53, 11 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Good thinking, Bradv15!! BTW, I just checked the Canada-US FTA, and it doesn't have ANY refs!! So the ones you found could well be useful there. Anchoress · Weigh Anchor · Catacomb 04:53, 11 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
