Use of a citation in Cathy Colman edit

In Cathy Colman you put a source citation into a section header, beacause, it seems, you did not know how to use it. Please do not do that in future. The general way is to include content based on or quoted from the source, thwn add the citation at the end of a sentence ot paragraph, or right after the source info is used. See Referencing for beginners and citing sources for more detail.

I have created a "Critical response" section in the article Cathy Colman , and used the source you had added to the section header in it. This is a typic metjhod to record reviews and other critical reactions (approving or disapproving, or mixed) of a creative work or the work of a creative person to the article about that work or person. Each review should be clearly attributed to its source, cited, and quoted or summered in the section. Such cites reviews from reliable sources can help to establish notbility. Fan or personal reviews from personal sites should not be included, only reviews published by reliable sources with editorial control, or from known experts in the field.

If you have what seems like a useful source but aren't sure hpow to use it, create a section on the article talk page and place it there, or add it to a "Geneeral sources" section in the article, in either case without <ref>...</ref> tags.
