Entry: switzerland - A566958
Author: cumulonimbus - U116074

the language is a bit simple because i wrote it to later be translated into french.

Hi there,

A few points you might want to add or change.

Cantons are the equivalent of Canadian provinces...
what's a Canadian province?

The only European country to remain neutral during WWII...
Both Portugal and Eire were neutral as well.

Under industries, maybe you should also mention banking and financial services.

You mentioned Switzerland is not part of the UN, maybe you should add that they're not part of the EU either.

A few spelling mistakes here and there:

All your apostrophes have turned into ’ ...
That's a common occurance when you use MSWord and then copy and paste.

switzerland = Switzerland

LAGUAGE = LANGUAGE

Don't let this put you off however, it's an excellent start


whisky

Oi! What about fondue?

What 'situation' in the Alps. Or did you mean 'location'.

The English used needs some grinding. Apart from that the entry is well on the way to become included into the edited guide.

H

A couple of facts ...
- Sweden also was neutral and wasn't allied or attacked.
- A couple of weeks ago the Swiss people voted and decided to join the UN.
- 'Hapsburgs' and 'Hasburgs' are both wrong, please use 'Habsburg'.

There's also an entry at A446591 which you could nick some pieces from (with due credits, of course). And there are lots of entries about places in Switzerland which should get links. And of course, fondue (see A571538).

Oh, and where are the fabulous watches???

Of course, these are only suggestions! You're free to take them or leave them since it's *your* entry

looking over it again i see that it needs a lot of work that i dont have time to do so i'd like to remove it from being an entry but i dont know how. anyone who wants to take it and make it better is welcome.

Hi, cumulonimbus!
It is easiest, for you, the author, to remove the entry from Peer Review.
First, click on the big Peer Review banner at the top of the page. Look down the list of Entries in Review. If your entry is on the first part of the list, click on the word Remove which should be on the right hand side of the screen, beside your author ID.

If your entry is not showing on the first page, click on the 'Click here to see more entries' link at the bottom of the page. If it still doesn't show, click on the other six buttons showing the other six pages of Peer Review until you find it. Then click 'Remove' as before.

I hope you have time to work on this and your Isaac Brock entries again!
