How references work

edit

Simple references

edit

These require two parts;

a)
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>
b) A section called "References" with the special code "{{reflist}}";
== References ==
{{reflist}}

(an existing article is likely to already have one of these sections)

To see the result of that, please look at user:chzz/demo/simpleref. Edit it, and check the code; perhaps make a test page of your own, such as user:RealspiritLi2/reftest and try it out.

Named references

edit
Chzz was born in 1837. <ref name=MyBook>
"The book of Chzz", Aardvark Books, 2009. 
</ref> 

Chzz lives in Footown.<ref name=MyBook/>

Note that the second usage has a / (and no closing ref tag). This needs a reference section as above; please see user:chzz/demo/namedref to see the result.

Citation templates

edit

You can put anything you like between <ref> and </ref>, but using citation templates makes for a neat, consistent look;

Chzz has 37 Olympic medals. <ref> {{Citation
 | last = Smith
 | first = John
 | title = Olympic medal winners of the 20th century
 | publication-date = 2001
 | publisher = [[Cambridge University Press]]
 | page = 125
 | isbn = 0-521-37169-4
}}
</ref>

Please see user:chzz/demo/citeref to see the result.

For more help and tips on that subject, see user:chzz/help/refs. Pesky (talkstalk!) 18:45, 28 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

Request for Feedback

edit

Just to let you know that you only need to submit your article for feedback once, an editor will get around to it, but as editors occasionally have real life’s to being patient helps. --wintonian talk 19:51, 1 June 2011 (UTC)Reply

Thanks but I had computer/server problems and the message didnt seem to be getting through (it was just 'waiting for wikipedia/loading') and nothing was happening; so tried many times and didnt know that the messages went through everytime I tried (wasnt showing on my cptr). didnt mean to try anyone's patience. sorry.

I understand, the servers seem to have been rather slow the last couple of days for me as well. --wintonian talk 03:48, 2 June 2011 (UTC)Reply
