In case I have inadvertently bypassed the patent/copyright laws . Please brought to my notice. HTH NyTym

How references work

Simple references

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:Gaurav Pruthi/reftest and try it out.

Named references

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

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!) 12:32, 28 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

TUSC token 178fb314948e451ccf46e66e2344436d

I am now proud owner of a TUSC account!

Please take a look at the article List of Satish Dhawan Space Centre launches. I have recently started using a type of green background colour for the Lunar or Interplanetary missions. I am actually confused about which of these colours would suit better -

  – #90ff90 or
  – #ccffd9

The first one is being used at present. It also matches the colour of the {{yes|Success}} template. It will only look odd when a mission fails and the {{no|Failure}} template needs to be used, which gives a red colour. I believe you understood what I am trying to convey.
Regards

Will be better if you change background color for the column 'Version/Serial' or 'Launch Vehicle & Variant' to indicate the same.
Gaurav Pruthitalk 04:51, 8 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
But which colour should be used? - Jayadevp13 12:00, 8 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Better if you can use blue   - #5882FA for the moon and orange   - #FE9A2E ( you can use different intensity for both) for the sun. Gaurav Pruthitalk 04:06, 10 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you. It will be used as and when required. - Jayadevp13 12:30, 10 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy Deletion

Please be more careful when using automated edits to tag articles for deletion. This article that you tagged here is for an electronic device, and A7 criteria does not apply. Thanks, Mike VTalk 07:55, 16 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

But I didn't find related category...can you pls suggest the similar one for the same .. Thanks for correcting. Gaurav Pruthitalk 08:03, 16 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I would suggest reviewing the material on speedy deletion criteria to better help you. While the article isn't perfect, I don't think any of the speedy deletion criteria applies to this article. Should you still want to see the article deleted, you can use proposed deletion or list it at articles for deletion. However, please consider that the article was just created today and needs time to develop. Hopefully with some contributions of other editors, over time it could have content similar to this article, for example. Mike VTalk 08:13, 16 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
