Teahouse Question

Hi there - just a heads up that I have moved your recent question at the Teahouse from the bottom of the page to the top. Most talk pages require that new discussions be placed at the bottom of the page. At the Teahouse, however, new questions are placed at the top to maximize visibility. Thanks! ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 07:43, 29 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Adding references can be easy

Hello! Here's how to add references from reliable sources for the content you add to Wikipedia. This helps maintain the Wikipedia policy of verifiability.

Adding well formatted references is actually quite easy:

While editing any article or a wikipage, on the top of the edit window you will see a toolbar which says "Cite". Click on it.
Then click on "Templates".
Choose the most appropriate template and fill in as many details as you can. This will add a well formatted reference that is helpful in case the web URL (or "website link") becomes inactive in the future.
Click on Preview when you're done filling out the 'Cite (web/news/book/journal)' to make sure that the reference is correct.
Click on Insert to insert the reference into your editing window content.
Click on Show preview to Preview all your editing changes.

Before clicking on Save page, check that a References header ==References== is near the end of the article.
And check that {{Reflist}} is directly underneath that header.

7. Click on Save page. ...and you've just added a complete reference to a Wikipedia article.

You can read more about this on Help:Edit toolbar or see this video File:RefTools.ogv.
Hope this helps, --John from Idegon (talk) 07:52, 29 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

A brownie for you!

For choosing to learn from your mistakes instead of complaining about other users. It's refreshing to meet an editor like you. -- Gestrid (talk) 05:16, 16 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Yes its now 2020 and I'm still learning. Thankfully before I make the edits. Thanks again! Hope you are well. JericVgilbert (talk) 19:07, 5 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
