Hello, and how do I create and insert a citation? Also, how do I highlight a name in blue and link it to another Wikipedia page or a outside web link? Thank you very much. barb --BPDeHuff (talk) 20:51, 1 May 2024 (UTC)
- BPDeHuff Good day and thank you for the question. See below
- Wiki link - Click "edit source" and nested the text with double "square brackets".
- inline citation - use horizontal format of Template:Cite web and Template:Cite book for source from web and book respectively.
- I have reverted your edits on John P. Peters. You can find your edits HERE. You can add back the info as long as you can support the info from independent, reliable sources such as from the newspaper and books for verification. Pls note the editor who add/change the content is the one who needs to provide the source/inline citation - see WP:PROVEIT.
- Please see Help:Wikitext for more Wiki mark-up
- Pop back here if you have any more question as I am here to help. Welcome to Wikipedia. Cassiopeia talk 00:26, 2 May 2024 (UTC)

Nursulton Ruziboev page edit
Hello, I thought we were supposed to use Sherdog as the source for MMA records, which his what I did. I believe you reverted it back to what Tapology said. Also, I do now realize I made some of the organization names too long, so I can fix that if you allow me to change it again. By the way, the "Stance" section with "Orthodox" only shows up when there is no source next to it. Creatorial (talk) 03:17, 6 May 2024 (UTC)
Creatorial, Hi Good day. I have reverted my edits (not sure why I did that, may be wrong click which I didnt intended to for I just want to add "re-used" ref" - btw, thank you for informing me. Yes we use info from the Sherdog for the infobox section. However, if the info is not listed/available from Sherdog, then we see other source for the info along with its source. Sherdog does not provide "Stand" and "Reach" info so we can either get it from UFCstats or Tapology. When we do that and the source need to cite the source. For any info that use on different parts/places on an article - in this case the "Reach" and "Stand" we need to cite the source in one of the info and "re-used" the ref for the 2nd info - see HERE. Stay safe and best. Cassiopeia talk 03:28, 6 May 2024 (UTC)
