[edit] Request for evaluation

This article was added to the request to be evaluated list, but I would not recommend changing the rating from start at this time. I would recommend requesting a peer review for some detailed suggestions. Some good starting points to improve the article would be to expand the lead paragraph and improve the citations for the article, adding a "References" section. Reading through the help pages on what makes a good article will point you in the right direction. Looks like a potentially very interesting article. Nightngle 20:21, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Buried in Dakar

It seems that Léopold Sédar Senghor is not buried in Joal, but in Dakar

• [2] "Dans l'après-midi, le corps de Léopold Sédar Senghor sera enterré au cimetière catholique de Bel-Air à Dakar"
• [3] "Léopold Sédar Senghor a été enterré à Dakar, dans l’intimité, aux côtés de son fils Philippe Maguilien Senghor"

[edit] Translation

I translated most parts of the french article into english. Please feel free to offer any comment on the translation as it was my first experience at it. Claveau 22:32, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] essay like

most encyclopedic articles dont have a summary and unles we're french or translate the poem it's kinda useless. Needs work but there are plenty of articles in that catagory now isn't there?

It was already there when I added the translation from the French article, it might not be necessary so feel free to delete it I guess... Claveau 09:16, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
