Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, but when you add or change content, as you did to the article Numansdorp, please cite a reliable source for your addition. This helps maintain our policy of verifiability. See Wikipedia:Citing sources for how to cite sources, and the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.

I've used the same links as there was used for the Dutch version. This is mainly the site of the muncipalty Cromstrijen that is used. It has quite some information about the town. I do have been wondering about the external links. These are in Dutch and there is no english version of this site. I had been looking for how to work with this, but I haven't been able to find it. Maybe I missed it, cause there is so much information. Do you have suggestions?--Dianafl (talk) 15:34, 8 January 2012 (UTC)

English-language sources are preferred over non-English ones, assuming English sources of equal quality and relevance are available. However, if they do not exist, use whatever sources you can find. See WP:NOENG on how to handle such sources. It is important to use inline citations, see WP:CITE. The external links section is not meant to be used for sources at all, see WP:EL. I moved the external link you used to be a citation. Let me know if you need any help. --Muhandes (talk) 09:19, 9 January 2012 (UTC)

Ok, I think I understand it, I mixed the 2 up. :-) I'll add the appropiate ones. Thanks a lot!--Dianafl (talk) 09:40, 9 January 2012 (UTC)

Happy to assist. While I'll probably keep your talk page on my watch list for another day or two, if you need any further help it would probably be best to leave me a note at my talk page. Best regards and happy editing. --Muhandes (talk) 10:30, 9 January 2012 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for July 9

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Spanish Fighting Bull, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Got. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
