[edit]

Hello, Chronley, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 13:34, 16 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Instead of using something like <ref name= ":2">, please use something more descriptive such as a source or author name i.e. <ref name= Ratti> One doesn't need to use quotes if there is no spaces in the name. Cheers and welcome! Jim1138 (talk) 08:36, 20 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Jim1138:

Thanks for the heads up, I was wondering if there was a way to sync it better. Can this be done in the visual editor, as it was what I was using, or is this only an edit source command? Chronley (talk) 15:42, 20 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Actually I've never tried the visual editor for a citation. If that's a limitation, then I guess that's the way it is done. Jim1138 (talk) 20:32, 20 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Not even sure how you did this with the visual editor. Jim1138 (talk) 20:36, 20 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Your edit here give an wp:edit summary that does not correlate with your edit. Please be careful. Thank you Jim1138 (talk) 09:06, 20 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]


@Jim1138:

Thanks for checking that for me. I think it was a mixture of me poorly wording that description and misreading what was written. I should have included that spinach and rice information was also removed. I meant that the specific information that watercress is a part of was removed (which isn't very specific). Is that what you meant to point out or did I miss something else? Sorry about that. Chronley (talk) 15:55, 20 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I think I just misunderstood and tired. Makes more sense with brain in gear! Sorry for the comment. Thanks for copy editing that! Cheers Jim1138 (talk) 20:31, 20 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
