- Hi Drmies, sorry for my poor editing. I'm working on the french version and I'm not used to the english one. I have just translated this article into French and was surprised by the information in the article in English. I felt compelled to correct it.--Woloof (talk) 14:25, 9 September 2019 (UTC)
- Don't apologize--it's fine. Let me make a few comments. You give links like this here; there's a few problems with that.
First of all, it's a bare URL, which is problematic. Better to cite completely (preferably with Template:Cite book or whatever is appropriate).
Second, I am not sure what you are citing: what that link offers is the "Présentation de l'éditeur", and I can't tell if that is directly what you're citing, or whether you are citing something from inside the book, Tengour, Ouanassa Siari (2010). Histoire contemporaine de l'Algérie. Nouveaux objets. Oran: Éditions CRASC. ISBN 978-9961-813-41-6.. The proper citation makes that clear--and similarly with the other citations.
There appear to be very few sources for this in English, so we'll have to live with what you have. French sources are fine, and thanks for adding them--but please be clear in those citations, so that we can see what you are citing. Thanks, Drmies (talk) 16:42, 9 September 2019 (UTC)
- Okay, I'll try to improve that.--Woloof (talk) 05:36, 10 September 2019 (UTC)
