Remove the template message?[edit]

Should we remove the template message asking for additional citations? I have thoroughly sourced the article throughout, so it should no longer be a problem. — Preceding unsigned comment added by FinanceOnWikipedia (talk • contribs) 10:32, 14 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Great! Probably, but just a few quick observations... The lead section doesn't need citations (MOS:LEAD), so you can move them into the body where appropriate, after including the bit about his continuing to rule for 30 years in the last section as well. No need to link to Al-Bashir more than once, and also I see it misspelt once near the bottom. Also not sure about putting the Brig. (abbreviated or otherwise) in the lead - I can't find a specific ruling on that one right now. Laterthanyouthink (talk) 11:51, 14 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks a lot, I have made the corrections you pointed out. FinanceonWikipedia (talk) 13:23, 14 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Excellent - looking good. (I just added a couple of minor tweaks to the last section.) Thanks for improving the article! Laterthanyouthink (talk) 13:51, 14 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
