Hello. I am editing an article and have various references I would like to include. How do I do that? I can edit the text easily enough - just not sure how to mark it with cross-referencing numbers or how to add to the references or links at the end of the piece. Thanks
- Hi, firstly, make sure you have the following at the bottom of the article:
==References== {{reflist}}
And then for each individual source, use one of these templates. Hope that helps ——RyanLupin • (talk) 09:46, 3 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] The recent edit you made to The Sun constitutes vandalism, and has been reverted. Please do not continue to vandalize pages; use the sandbox for testing. Thanks. - tholly --Turnip-- 17:36, 3 July 2008 (UTC)
It wasn't vandalism. It was a rewrite adding a large amount of new information and deleting a raft of unsubstantiated comment, errors and broken links.
- OK, I've placed an {{underconstruction}} template on the The Sun page. When you have finished doing your revamp, take it off. Any controversial changes or inclusion of debatable content that sounds like an opinion will be deleted if not backed up by references. You say in your edit summaries that you have looked up the references, so please include them in article. Hope this helps, - tholly --Turnip-- 19:54, 3 July 2008 (UTC)
sure, thanks. Am just a bit unfamiliar with those templates but will work through them within a few days Ajp2000 (talk) 21:03, 3 July 2008 (UTC)AJP2000
