Citing sources

I wrote my post from an information brochure I recieved when i visited the site. How should I reference this? Antleredtuna (talk) 02:40, 20 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I recommend reading through the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources first, but simply adding something along the lines of "<ref>Name of brochure</ref>" immediately after your text (i.e. in place of the "Fact" tag) should be sufficient. An online source would enable other editors to verify the details, but I think quoting details from a paper guide is acceptable on Wikipedia. Give us a shout if you are still unsure. --DAJF (talk) 04:34, 20 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the quick reply Antleredtuna (talk) 13:19, 21 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

ranking

The Daibutsu here were listed according to size (as the note on the list said); This was changed without much of an explanation, so I've reverted it. If there is a better arrangement for "large Buddhas" than size, please say so, and put it up for discussion. Moonraker12 (talk) 18:47, 7 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It consented to the order for the ranking. However, please do not rewind it to other parts together. --663highland (talk) 10:30, 20 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I don't understand. What do you mean? Moonraker12 (talk) 15:14, 20 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please see this. You only simply rewound it. --663highland (talk) 16:12, 20 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please pardon it when there is an impolite expression because English is not a mother tongue. --663highland (talk) 16:18, 20 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Rudyard Kipling is not important for the article on Daibutsu.--663highland (talk) 10:37, 20 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I agree, the reference to Kipling is not appropriate in the introduction. It is better where it is now.

Also, the bold letters for the daibutsu name is clearer; it looks better. Moonraker12 (talk) 18:23, 24 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
