Congratulations on your article being accepted!

I've taken a look at your article, and I've made a few improvements. However, I'd ask that you take a second look at some of your references:

  • References to the Online Etymology Dictionary don't refer to the specific entry where the information is found, and I can't seem to figure them out. I've marked these like this:
{{sfn|Etymology|2014|loc=<!-- Specific entry -->}}{{nonspecific|date=March 2014}}

You'll notice I converted this to another shortened footnote. You can replace &lt;!-- Specific entry --&gt; with the name of the entry. After you've done that, you can remove {{nonspecific|...}} (which is a tag marking an issue).

  • I'm not sure which "Oxford Dictionary" you've cited. You can go down to the "References" section, where I've converted this into a {{cite encyclopedia}} reference, and fill in the information. (Don't worry about the "encyclopedia" bit; this is for dictionaries, too.) After this is fixed you can remove {{full|...}} (another issue-marking tag).

If you don't feel like addressing these issues, that's fine. Wikipedia is voluntary, and perfection is not required.   Thank you for your contributions! Anon126 (talk - contribs) 07:17, 6 March 2014 (UTC)Reply
