Madison, Wisconsin

I saw you added Covance back to this article. I also saw the external links you added. Just a quick note: external links for a large article like Madison generally should be limited to things associated with the city government, chamber of commerce, or perhaps other websites about the city as a whole, not individual references that support a small fact. I instead used one of the links as a citation for the Covance entry. For more information on how best to use sources, take a look at citing sources. Regards, P. D.
