References
Hi. If you're going to add references that consist solely of URLs, as you did in Aaron Swartz, please do not bracket [] them as <ref>[http://foo.bar]</ref>, as they just show up as [1] links. Instead, please write htem as <ref>http://foo.bar</ref> so that the URL is visible. Best, of course, would to use something like {{cite web}} but I realize that may be unreasonably burdensome. Thanks. Incidentally, I don't think that you were correct to remove the Youtube link. For one thing, the source you provided doesn't include it. For another, despite WP:PRIMARY, some random news account is not always superior to the raw facts, especially as news is developing. I haven't reverted your change, but upon reflection I think I probably ought to.... Thank you! jhawkinson (talk) 09:34, 26 January 2013 (UTC)
