Thanks / Adding references edit

Latest comment: 10 years ago2 comments1 person in discussion

Thank you for your constructive edits and additional references. You may find the article Help:Referencing for beginners useful in learning how to build complete and well-formatted references in Wikipedia. The methods shown in Using refToolbar are particularly handy for enabling efficient cut-and-paste construction of a proper Wikipedia reference. Your work is appreciated; please continue!

Please do look at the tutorials on referencing mentioned in my earlier message just above. The refToolbar method is very useful, because it uses a simple form to cue an editor to include the most important parameters (for example, author, date, publisher), while it takes care of the formatting details automatically. You can skip the later section in the tutorial, on manually building references, until/unless you need to "look under the covers" to make custom modifications.

Basic referencing is easier than it looks, especially if you use the refToolbar template method. If you read the tutorials and try some test edits in a WP:SANDBOX, but are still having trouble, leave a message for me here (I'll watch this page) and I'll try to lend a hand.
