Your submission at Articles for creation
editHi Hgryrubx,
You recently made a submission to Articles for Creation — the page is Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Krav Hagana — and it will be reviewed by a volunteer soon.
However... it doesn't seem to have correctly formatted references.
All articles on Wikipedia should have inline, numbered references after facts, showing the 'reliable source' (newspaper, book, etc.) where the information can be checked.
If you put a reference like this:
Chzz is 98 years old.<ref> "The book of Chzz", Aardvark Books, 2009. </ref> He likes tea.<ref> [http://www.nicecupofteaandasitdown.com Tea website] </ref>
...then the reference will automatically be displayed as a small number[1], and the number will link to the details, wherever there is a {{reflist}} — there should be one of those in a section titled == References ==.
You can see that example in action on this page: user:chzz/demo/simpleref.
For more help, see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners.
It is a very important policy of Wikipedia that all information is verifiable — i.e., that all material added to articles must be attributable to a source with a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy.
Your submission will be reviewed as soon as possible, and we'll try to help with it, but it would help us a lot if you could add inline references.
If you need any other kind of help, just put {{helpme}} at the end of this page, followed by a question. Best, Chzz ► 17:39, 12 May 2011 (UTC)
{{helpme}} Hi Chzz, I have many references that are not from websites, but I do have digital copies of them. How will it be possible to submit those as references to prove the information written?
- If the certificates are not published somewhere, then they can't be used. For example, we can't 'cite' my driving licence and assert "Chzz can drive a car." - because that'd be original research (which is not permitted).
- References must be available for the reader to check, so that the facts can be verified.
- It needs to be something that has been published.
- So, a reference such as a newspaper could be cited - as shown above; you just put all the details of it in-between <ref> and </ref>.
- There's no need to scan anything in (and to do so could be a copyright violation).
- See also Wikipedia:Identifying reliable sources, and for help on how to add them, Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners. Cheers, Chzz ► 00:06, 24 May 2011 (UTC)
{{helpme}} Hi chzz, I'm sorry for the constant questioning, but this is my first article and before I mess everything up completely I want to make sure it all goes according to wikipedia rules. My second question is this: if I have newspaper references, how do I put them as inline references, and where do I reference them in the reference section at the bottom of the article. Thanks, Hgryrubx
