Moresnet[edit]

A clearly written nothing-fancy article with good illustrations revealing a fact that few of us knew beforehand. I found it by pure accident. -- Egil 18:40, 21 Apr 2005 (UTC)

  • Object - good, as far as it goes, but could do with an image of something in the place (for example, an archive image of the mine) or of a person who is involved, and the article has no references. Also, is there anything to say about it more recently than 1920 or before 1815? -- ALoan (Talk) 18:58, 21 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  • Object agree with Aloan. 1)An image of the place today would also be nice. 2) The map is not too clear after clicking it. Is it possible to get the location drawn on a contemporary map? 3)Needs a copyedit too. Otherwise is an interesting article.  =Nichalp (talk · contribs)= 19:04, Apr 21, 2005 (UTC)
  • Object. Article needs references. The content looks fine by me. One detail maybe though: the caption of the flag picture says it is an "unofficial flag", but there is no mention of the flag in the article. Where does it come from then? Were the colors taken from the coat of arms of a local noble/place? Also, I do not usually object articles because of pictures, but a photography sure would be nice. Phils 10:06, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)
