List of Odonata species of Great Britain

Hi Harasseddad, in response to your question: to reference material you need to use <ref></ref> tags. The reference is inserted in between the tags, this creates an inline citation which shows up in the references section. Here is an example (showing the coding needed):

<ref>Plunkett, John. [http://media.guardian.co.uk/site/story/0,14173,1601858,00.html "Sorrell accuses Murdoch of panic buying"], ''The Guardian'', London, October 27, 2005. Accessed 17 August 2010.</ref>

Make sure the references are from trusted sources. For more information see Wikipedia:Citing sources. If you have specific questions I would be more than happy to help. Cheers, Jack (talk) 23:35, 16 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
