BEFORE YOU EDIT THIS PAGE, PLEASE READ THESE NOTES:~~ This is NOT a general trivia section. == Articles Translated by Martin Cordon == This section is only for items that have been listed on "NEW PAGES" in the last 120 hours [[Agen aqueduct]] The title of the new article should be '''BOLD''' and placed on TOP as the FIRST ITEM. [[Briare aqueduct]] Generally limited to FOUR items, but whatever the case - just make sure it fits whatever else is on the page at that time. Use your common sense. [[Canal de Brienne]] Please ARCHIVE '''expired''' items under the appropriate heading in [[Template talk:Did you know]] and make sure you include the latest grammar and spelling corrections, so all changes can be archived in batches. [[Canal de Garonne]] NO STUBS (moreover, try to find new articles that are 1,000+ bytes in size) [[Fonsérannes Locks]] Try to pick articles that are ORIGINAL to Wikipedia (not 1911 or other data sources) and that are INTERESTING. [[Freycinet gauge]] The "Did you know?" fact must be mentioned in the article. [[Henrichenburg boat lift]] The standard image code is below. [[List of boat lifts]] Images should be sized to 100px or SMALLER. [[Montech water slope]] Avoid using fair-use images. Instead, find a related free image (PD, GFDL, CC etc.) as an alternative. [[Niederfinow boat lift]] After updating this section, please go to [[Talk:Main Page]] and click the "Main Page Cache Purge" so that all users will see the update.
