Comments

Everything in the article is great. I just have 2 suggestions that should be taken into consideration before I pass the article.

Under the athletic section of the article, above the table it says Mens, but there is a women event in the table. This needs to be fixed.
- I removed the titles "Mens", and for consistency's sake, the "Womens" on the next event. It should be all set. --Starstriker7^(Talk) 01:11, 25 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
For reference #2, why isn't it in the "</ref>{{cite web|url=..." form? This should be fixed before I pass the article.
- I formatted it without the Cite web format because when I set it up, the result (for some reason) refused to connect to the actual URL. Once I placed the actual reference in Cite web format. it ended up looking something like "[www.sportingpulse.com/get_file.cgi?id=591528 "2008 VASANOC Annual Report"]. Vanuatu Association of Sports and National Olympic Committee. 2008. Retrieved 26 April 2012." I could add in the retrieval date, however, which I seemed to have forgotten. --Starstriker7^(Talk) 01:11, 25 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you very much for doing this review. I have addressed the first comment. Hopefully my answer to the second is sufficient, but let me know if there are alternate solutions to be had. --Starstriker7^(Talk) 01:11, 25 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Weird...I tried fixing the problem using different formats for the reference on my sandbox but nothing worked...--Dom497 (talk) 18:43, 25 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
