Carnival Sensation

[edit]

Hi Aaron! I reverted your recent edit to Carnival Sensation because it didn't conform to some of Wikipedia's standards, but don't worry, I'm here to help you learn what those are and how to meet them, because I see that you are new around here. First, and this is the biggest thing, is to always cite sources when adding information like this to Wikipedia's articles. That can be a little complicated, but you'll get the hang of it in no time. To cite a book, magazine article, dictionary or encyclopedia, web site, or most anything else, there is a template to make it easy. You can use {{cite book}} for books, {{cite web}} for web sites, {{cite encyclopedia}} for glossaries, dictionaries and encyclopedia, etc. Always be sure to enclose the citation in "ref" tags, which look like this: <ref></ref>, so an example could look like this (in the editing screen): Something John Doe said.<ref>{{cite book |last=Doe |first=John |year=2012 |title=This is the name of my book |publisher=John Doe Press |location=New York |page=345}}</ref>, which would produce this in the article:

Something John Doe said.[1]
  1. ^ Doe, John (2012). This is the name of my book. New York: John Doe Press. p. 345.

Besides that, in this particular case it is important to also phrase your addition in a way that explains HOW the ship was used in the film, to establish relevance. Basically, if several scenes of the movie were filmed aboard the ship, it is clearly relevant. If the ship just passed by in the background of frames 137-145, then it probably doesn't belong in the article. I hope that helps, and if I can help you with anything else, don't hesitate to leave me a message! Cheers! Wilhelm Meis (☎ Diskuss | ✍ Beiträge) 18:34, 16 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
