William Rusher article
[edit]Your updates to the William Rusher article are excellent. Thanks for your contributions. I can tell from your work on that article that you are an excellent writer, and also that you are new to Wikipedia's styles. The links in the Welcome section above should help with that. A few quick tips: Book titles go in italics, which is rendered with two single-quotes on each side, not with a double-quote, thus: ''Book Title''
. If something is both italicized and "link"ified, it's best to put the single-quotes outside of the brackets, thus: ''[[Book Title]]''
. If a link shows up as red (broken), it's worth seeing if perhaps it broke because you put quote marks inside the link brackets. For example, your link to Good Morning America is broken because the single-quotes are inside the brackets (and also because of the comma).
When you are editing a page, you can use the Show preview button to show what your current edits will look like. This will reveal if the links are red or blue. Or you can just save your changes, and then edit it a second time to fix your links.
Anyway, welcome to Wikipedia! — Lawrence King (talk) 15:08, 18 April 2011 (UTC)
