The name used by the official web site of the college (instead of third-party sources) would still fall under WP:OFFICIALNAME, not WP:COMMONAME. Zzyzx11 (talk) 02:07, 11 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This help request has been answered. If you need more help, place a new {{help me}} request on this page followed by your questions, contact the responding user(s) directly on their user talk page, or consider visiting the Teahouse.

Apologies but not sure how to edit the Notes section directly and the following link in the Notes appears to be broken:

1. History of Harry S Truman College

http://www.trumancollege.edu/visitors/history.php

Perhaps it should be?

You are quite right. I have updated the link. Thank you for pointing this out. JohnCD (talk) 15:52, 21 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you John. Unfortunately a few of the others are broken also which i am glad to fix! Can you explain to me or send me a link about how to do this? When i hit edit in the notes section i do not see the URL's themselves? Why? Moshekaye (talk) 16:06, 21 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Short answer: you don't see them in the "Notes" section, because they are placed in the text at the point they refer to, between <ref> ... </ref> tags, and then a "template" {{reflist}} at the end of the article causes them all to be displayed there, with links back to the text. You can read about it at WP:CITE. This is all made more complicated because there are now two quite different ways to edit articles: the traditional one accessed through the "Edit source" tab, and a new "Visual editor" accessed through the "Edit" tab, which it is hoped will make things easier but which at present is very much a prototype-on-test. More advice on your talk page later today. JohnCD (talk) 17:07, 21 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

John, I believe that i have corrected all the relevant links but i cannot find on the current website for the college any current reference to the "Northeastern Illinois University partnership" and the "Truman College Teacher Preparation". I have left them in the article for the moment but wanted to ask what is the protocol for removal? Some advice would be appreciated. Thank you ~Moshe Moshekaye (talk) 05:03, 23 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I just found this page ^[1] so i will update the reference with this link. Moshekaye (talk) 05:20, 23 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
