How to Cite Sources in an article

edit

Tenkun,

Hola!!! Thanks for stopping by. Nice work in Ginevra King.

Please read:

Wikipedia:Citing sources and also Wikipedia:Citing sources/example style

SEE: Wikipedia:Guide to writing better articles (This is a good one!)

Do you have more about her than just her connection to Fitz? Birth date? What else did she do in her life?

Ginevra King

edit

Yes, it looks like she was just a rich kid who went from daddy's money to two rich husbands, and didn't do much else. Most likely charity work and socializing. I think we would have to get a hold of a birth/death/census records and/or obit to get the dates. WikiDon 04:08, 28 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

PS: Who are the other three of the "big four"? What is their claim to fame? WikiDon 04:15, 28 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

Big Four

edit

Chicago's "Big Four" WWI debutantes might be worthy of an article.

How about: Chicago's Big Four (debutantes)

John Borden

This is good:

  • Married, John Borden, 49, oil tycoon, sportsman-explorer, divorced month ago by Courtney Letts Stillwell Borden (TIME, July 10); and Frances Yeaton, 21, his secretary; in Muskegon, Mich. WikiDon 05:45, 28 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

Dear Tenkun. Thank you for your contribution to Where in the World Is Carmen Sandiego? (song), but I'm afraid that the link to lyricwiki is not consistent with Wikipedia's copyright policy. When we add links to material on external sites, we must ensure that the site is not violating the creator's copyright. Linking to websites that display copyrighted works is acceptable as long as the website's operator has created or licensed the work. According to a March 2008 notice in their blog, Lyricwiki no longer pursues legal licensing. Like Youtube, it only removes lyrics if a DMCA take-down notice is filed by the artist. Knowingly directing others to a site that violates copyright may be considered contributory infringement. Wikipedia exercises all necessary diligence to ensure that we remain compliant with US copyright law.

If the material is available on a different site that satisfies one of the above conditions, you might want to link to that site instead. Sites such as mtv.com have been gradually increasing the number of lyrics they display legally, with proper compensation to the artists. If these lyrics are not currently displayed there, perhaps eventually they will be. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 13:40, 31 December 2008 (UTC)Reply
