==Please format the external links==
Hello, {{BASEPAGENAME}} ... please format the external links in {{la|Christina Mendez}} using the <code>{{tl|cite web}}</code> template ... you can use some of the other articles as examples ... whenever possible, use the <code><nowiki><title></nowiki></code> from the HTML file for the Web page (assuming you're an HTML [[newbie]]):
# from your Web browser's menu, '''View <nowiki>|</nowiki> Page source'''
# search for the HTML <code><nowiki><title></nowiki></code> tag
# copy the text up to the <code><nowiki></title></nowiki></code> end tag
Using http://www.waterholes.com/~dennette/1996/hopper/bug.htm for an example, we examine the HTML source file, and can make:
:{{cite web |url= http://www.waterholes.com/~dennette/1996/hopper/bug.htm |title= The First Computer Bug! |work= WaterHoles.com |accessdate= 2008-09-03}}
'''Note:''' by using [[ISO 8601|ISO 8601 date format]] (YYYY-MM-DD), the [[MediaWiki]] software can [[wiktionary:automagical|automagically]] create links to the year and date articles ... it also avoids 02/04/08 confusion. :-)
'''Note:''' the <code><nowiki>|work=</nowiki></code> will add the italics, and if the source publication has an article (''e.g.''. ''[[The New York Times]]'' for <code>nytimes.com</code>), then place it in <code><nowiki>[[]]</nowiki></code> so that it will be linked ... you'll have to <u>research</u> whether or not a [[Spanish language]] publication like ''[[El Nuevo Herald]]'' has an article. <sub>(This instruction was for Some Other Editor.)</sub>
Even though I don't read Spanish, I can take ''"by Jose Padilla"'' and make:
:<code><nowiki>|first= Jose |last= Padilla</nowiki></code>
This will get displayed as '''Padilla, Jose''' in the appropriate position in the citation.
Just read the [[:Template:Cite web]] and [[:Template:Cite news]] documentation (for published articles/reviews without Web versions), and you'll figure out what else you can use ... BTW, I've never used it myself, but there's a <code>{{tl|Cite press release}}</code> template.
Welcome to Wikipedia. We invite everyone to contribute constructively to our encyclopedia. Some of your recent edits, such as those you made to Lisa Nowak, have been considered unhelpful or unconstructive and have been reverted or removed.

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Christina Mendez has been reverted. Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove unwanted links and spam from Wikipedia. The external link you added or changed is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. The external links I reverted were matching the following regex rule(s): rule: '\bmyspace\.com' (link(s): http://www.myspace.com/jodelarosa) . If the external link you inserted or changed was to a blog, forum, free web hosting service, or similar site, then please check the information on the external site thoroughly. Note that such sites should probably not be linked to if they contain information that is in violation of the creator's copyright (see Linking to copyrighted works), or they are not written by a recognised, reliable source. Linking to sites that you are involved with is also strongly discouraged (see conflict of interest).
If this is a shared IP address, and you didn't make the edit, please ignore this notice.

Hello, 216.187.131.254 ... please format the external links in Christina Mendez (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) using the {{cite web}} template ... you can use some of the other articles as examples ... whenever possible, use the <title> from the HTML file for the Web page (assuming you're an HTML newbie):
{{cite web
|url= http://www.waterholes.com/~dennette/1996/hopper/bug.htm
|title= The First Computer Bug!
|work= WaterHoles.com
|accessdate= {{subst:CurrentYYYYMMDD}}
}}
Note: by using ISO 8601 date format (YYYY-MM-DD), the MediaWiki software can automagically create links to the year and date articles ... it also avoids 02/04/08 confusion. :-)
Note: the |work= will add the italics, and if the source publication has an article (e.g.. The New York Times for nytimes.com), then place it in [[]] so that it will be linked ... you'll have to research whether or not a Spanish language publication like El Nuevo Herald has an article. (This instruction was for Some Other Editor.)
Even though I don't read Spanish, I can take "by Jose Padilla" and make:
|first= Jose |last= Padilla
This will get displayed as Padilla, Jose in the appropriate position in the citation.
Just read the Template:Cite web and Template:Cite news documentation (for published articles/reviews without Web versions), and you'll figure out what else you can use ... BTW, I've never used it myself, but there's a {{Cite press release}} template.
