Using a reference multiple times (tip)

When the same reference is useful in more than one place in an article, you can name the reference when you first define it, and then in other locations just call the named ref. For example, you can put

<ref name="bot">{{cite web|url=https...|title=xxx|access-date=15 August 2020|website=blah}}</ref>

at one location in the article, and everywhere else just use

<ref name="bot" />

I named the repeated ref in Sewing machine, you can see how I did it in that article. Happy editing! Schazjmd (talk) 22:51, 18 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Edits on Dekalog

Hi, I reverted your recent edits on Dekalog, since they were (with one exception) essayistic and personal in nature. The exception was the bit about the ‎appearance of the character of Artur Barciś in the seventh film, which is encyclopedic if you have a source. Thanks --ATDT (talk) 02:11, 12 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

My DVD copy credits Artur Barciś. My DVD copy shows a man on crutches and that is the only person that could be Artur Barciś.

Are there different versions of the Dekalog? If not then I am correct.

The article already has some personal statements, such as the reference to Roger Ebert. Presumably as other personal opinions are listed in the references I can add mine?

You cannot, because Wikipedia is not a place for publishing one's own thoughts, and because Wikipedia articles must not contain original research. I hope this helps clear things up, and that you are not discouraged from making other contributions. --ATDT (talk) 21:44, 12 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

OK. Apparently I can publish the "opinions of experts". Who decides if someone is an expert? Because the offending text occurs in a table and it would not be possible to add text to it, I have put the text I add in a reference. Is there a better way to add it?
