i) Sometime after this contest the tie-break rules changed and the first breaker became the number of countries that voted for the tied songs (and only after that, if necessary, the number of '12's (etc). This new rule would have given this contest to France (18 countries voted), and not Sweden (17 countries voted).
ii) There appears to have been some problem with Carola's performance (ultimate winner), with a dismissed suggestion that their performance should have been repeated ? (Sound system problem maybe ? Anyone know ?) Archzog12:06, 18 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Ireland and the UK were tied at 10th. Shouldn't the article be changed to Ireland 11th, UK 10th, because the UK got a ten while Ireland didn't. 09:02, 10 July 2013 (UTC)

1. Well-written
For the first time since 1969 the contest resulted in a draw for first place... Add a comma after "1969"
Of the countries that participated in 1990 the Netherlands were the only country that failed to make a return... Add a comma after "1990", and the Netherlands should be treated as a singular noun, so change "were" to "was"
The nation had for a number of years attempted to make a return to the contest, however were prevented from doing so... Should be "was" instead of "were"
An audience was present for the second dress rehearsal in the evening of 3 May. Change "in" to "on"
...and during the live broadcast a number of technical mishaps occurred... Add a comma after "broadcast"
Unlike the majority of previous contest presenters, whom had conducted the events in English and French... Should be "who" instead of "whom"

Never mind, I fixed it by merging some duplicated citations and bundling two references that weren't being used for anything else.--Launchballer10:47, 26 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
