From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

OAnick aka Nick Sheppard. I work at the University of Leeds as Open Research Advisor in the Library.

I am at a Wikipedia training session in the Edward Boyle Library.

My example citation:

I read an interesting article in The Guardian that I will cite after the full stop.[1] It is about physicist Donna Strickland who does now, finally, have her own Wikipedia article. I can reuse the same citation later in my article.[1]

If I have web address URL, a journal article DOI code, book ISBN number or a Pubmed Identifier I can auto generate citations using the Cite dropdown menu and these will also save as references at the foot of the page when I publish my edits.

Templates I can add

This is a new user Infobox Wikipedia user (for your own userpage) Infobox person (for generic biography articles) new user article (for putting on Talk pages of articles you have newly published in the Wikipedia main space).

My example image I will do a keyword search of the 85 million free to use images in Wikipedia's sister project, Wikimedia Commons, the free media repository. I can upload my own 'open-licensed' images to Wikimedia Commons if they are my own work, public domain or CC-0, CC-BY or CC-BY-SA licensed. I can look for open licensed images using image search aggregator tools like the Creative Commons "CC Search tool" and filtering my search for Public domain, CC-0, CC-BY or CC-BY-SA images.

Categories These appear at the foot of the Wikipedia page and are added to published pages in the Wikipedia main article space. You can find categories in the Visual Editor dropdown menu indicated with 3 horizontal lines.
