Hey
I see you're working hard on your article International Convention on Oil Pollution Preparedness, Response and Co-operation. I just wanted to point out that you're not properly citing information in the article. References should be placed between ref tags, you can create a note group by putting notes between ref group=Note tags. However, your "notes" aren't actually notes, they appear to be references. According to WP:EXPLNOTE, [An] explanatory footnote.. ..is a comment that would be too detailed or too awkward to include in the body of the article. According to WP:FNNR, the references and notes sections may contain (1) explanatory footnotes that give information which is too detailed or awkward to be in the body of the article, (2) citation footnotes that serve to verify specific information in the article, (3) general references (bibliography items) that are not explicitly related to any specific parts of the text or are the target of a short citation.

While I'm not sure exactly which are which, you've placed what appears to be references in the notes section and a list of items (without using the ref tag) in the references section. Please take a look at the above wikipolicies and, if you have any other questions, please feel free to ask! Thanks for editing! Ncboy2010 (talk) 11:50, 15 March 2012 (UTC)

Hello!
Thank you very much for your messages. I moved references renaming former "Notes" "References" and left the remainder in "Further reading" if that's OK. I'll read the policies and if still necessary will ask further questions. Thank you again for your help! Lovini (talk) 19:05, 15 March 2012 (UTC)
