 * It's about a global movement of some sort, apparently well sourced, seems worthy of translation. I might work on it later. But why does a Portuguese article cite English books for all its sources? Seems odd. Grandmasterka 10:56, 3 March 2006 (UTC)


 * "Terceiro se(c)tor" or "third sector" is a term used for "civil society" (e.g. the set of non-profit/non-governmental organizations) in Portuguese. (There's the public sector, private sector, and then the "third sector".)  Although the pt.wikipedia.org article "Terceiro setor" says the term originated in English, I've heard it used much more in Portuguese than in English (and I work for an organization that falls under this classification...).  I would suggest merge into civil society.  The use of "3o" (short for "terceiro") would need to changed to "3rd" or "third" in any case...   Schoen 05:18, 11 March 2006 (UTC)


 * This is weird, I think it's probably copyvio: looks at this google search:, and also look at the cached page Kappa 05:25, 11 March 2006 (UTC)
 * If merge Non-governmental organization would be better. Jameswilson 23:51, 11 March 2006 (UTC)

Note: The original page seems to be from the EU, and probably legal to copy if the source is acknowledged. Kusma (討論) 12:37, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

 * Primary sector is production - farming, mining, etc. Secondary is manufacturing.  Tertiary is services.  I remember this from GCSE geography.  And I got an A*, so nyah.  See Primary sector of industry.  Redirect this to Tertiary sector of industry.    Proto    ||    type    14:18, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
