History of Greenland
Self-nomination (though I've had some help), and my first at that. Now that I've added some pictures, I thought it might be worthy of nomination – if nothing else, to see what additions people think it needs. -- Jao 13:45, Aug 4, 2004 (UTC)
 * Great job! Needs only a few things before it's featured-quality. 1) The air base, and a nuclear accident, are mentioned as causing friction between Greenland and Denmark. Why would the air base cause friction, and please mention more details on this nuclear thing. 2) Why was Greenland so dissatisfied with the European union?

 * Thanks for your suggestions. I have tried to address these issues. -- Jao 06:27, Aug 6, 2004 (UTC)
 * Support. A fine effort. [[User:Meelar|Meelar (talk)]] 13:19, 2004 Aug 6 (UTC)
 * Support. I would like to see some references to books (or other media) about the topic. This is especially necessary for the part where there is no consensus about what really happened (such as when the Vikings left, why, etc.). Jeronimo 21:50, 5 Aug 2004 (UTC)
 * I have added another external link about that, so there are now three in total discussing the subject. Do you think this is sufficient, or do we need to attribute each theory to a certain source? (Unfortunately, my primary printed source is written in Swedish, so that's probably not very useful to mention.) -- Jao 06:27, Aug 6, 2004 (UTC)
 * I don't think it is necessary to attribute every theory, unless they are very famous or controversial. I think the Swedish book is useful to list, especially if there are no equivalent English works on the subject. Jeronimo 06:43, 6 Aug 2004 (UTC)
 * I should note that I wrote a lot of the Viking and Inuit material. I would like to see more added on the details of home rule powers - have they expanded over time? Also I know there is a controversy over pollution at U.S. radar bases in Northern Canada, is it also an issue at Thule? Rmhermen 16:26, Aug 6, 2004 (UTC)
 * I have now added a paragraph about international relations after 1985. I will try to find more information, as I share your interest. The commission report I linked to might be useful, I'll look deeper into it. -- Jao 05:51, Aug 10, 2004 (UTC)
