• ... that following the Soviet invasion of Poland and the exodus of the Anders Army, tens of thousands of Polish civilians ended up in camps around the world, many of them in the British colonies?

long enough, new enough, but I was doing a lot of copy editing when I came across a large quote. A quote like that needs to be indented. After I indented it I found that it was followed but what appeared to be another quote. But it was not marked or cited. Shortly after that it was followed by another lengthy quote make the section, British Africa, is 98% quotes. I think that that section is far to heavy with quoted material. I did not go farther than that and I have not checked the citations.--Ishtar456 (talk) 04:41, 24 March 2012 (UTC)

I have created this article, but frankly speaking, my time now is too limited to make any improvements to it. So, if it goes, it is Ok, if it does not, it is OK, too. Tymek (talk) 05:10, 25 March 2012 (UTC)

well at the moment, I don't have time to clean it up either. This article needs to be copy edited. Quotes need paraphrasing and citations. The nom. states that he/she has no time to do it. Any takers?--Ishtar456 (talk) 12:09, 25 March 2012 (UTC)

Some copyediting has been done, and quotations are now proper blockquotes. So that should be sorted. But the article is insufficiently referenced to meet DYK criteria, with many paragraphs without any references. Schwede66 18:37, 13 April 2012 (UTC)
