Citation needed tag

edit

Hello Alex, I'm Airplaneman. Thanks for improving the Anna Chapman article. Just a quick note: to add a citation needed tag, just use {{citation needed}} (copy the format I just posted). In shorthand, it looks like {{cn|date=July 2010}} (date changes monthly). Other than that, try to use the templates "cite" drop-down menu on your toolbar to help prevent link rot. To fix bare references (ones with just the URL, no title, author, or anything), this is a useful tool. In an article with many bare references, you can also try ref links, a tool which helps fill out URL's (adding more information using the {{cite}} template) and tag dead links. Happy editing, Airplaneman Review? 03:16, 10 July 2010 (UTC)Reply
