My reports and photographs have appeared on the front page of the Biltmore Beacon each week since January 2008, so I can report with certainty it exists. Should anyone care to confirm this the telephone number for The Mountaineer is 828 452-0661. The subject page called Biltmore Beacon was created yesterday by me. Although I have read the Wikipedia tutorial, I was unable to turn the last sentence into a proper footnote. Advice in that regard would be helpful.

"There are <ref> tags on this page, but the references will not show without a <references/> tag." What does this mean? It is the "Cite error" message I get when I attempt to add a reference.Ian.thomson (talk) 18:11, 20 December 2009 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Quill-ink (talk • contribs) 15:54, 20 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed your post. When putting code into talk pages, put the code in nowiki tags: <nowiki><code goes where?></nowiki>. The <references/> tag goes at the end of the article in the ==References== section, and tells the article to display all the references you've been putting throughout the article.

<ref> tags go right after the part they are references for, not in the references section. Ian.thomson (talk) 16:15, 22 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, Ian. Quill-ink (talk) 15:12, 1 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
