Reference Errors on 6 July

Hello, I'm ReferenceBot. I have automatically detected that an edit performed by you may have introduced errors in referencing. It is as follows:

• On the University of Western Australia page, your edit caused an unnamed parameter error (help). (Fix | Ask for help)

Please check this page and fix the errors highlighted. If you think this is a false positive, you can report it to my operator. Thanks, ReferenceBot (talk) 00:32, 7 July 2014 (UTC)

UWA

I havent had the chance to look closely on the UWA article as to who did what or what is the source in the bits and pieces, but there are overlinked and under-referenced parts - take care as some of your edits might leave an average reader with nothing to clarify with. Look at other university articles from other states - compare - and try understanding that over-lengthy involvement in one article can leave you open as a WP:SPA candidate - and such a focus can leave you quite out of perspective as to what wikipedia is WP:ABOUT satusuro 03:22, 7 July 2014 (UTC)

I apologize if I did any wrong-doings. From my knowledge I added some more references but they are not in correct format (i may have referenced just the source) but didnt' include title accessdate, author etc. I respect that I may not be useful in the "enhancement" of the page, and so If asked I will stop editing the page.

No wrong doing just new editor things - try the links below for some help if need be, 2 things - try to learn to WP:SIGN and also consider you are a new editor - some things take time to get used to. Take care satusuro 00:43, 8 July 2014 (UTC)

Edit summaries

Hi there.

When editing Wikipedia, there is a field labeled "Edit summary" below the main edit box. It looks like this:

Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)

The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.

Filling in the edit summary field greatly helps your fellow contributors in understanding what you changed, so please always fill in the edit summary field. If you are adding a section, please do not just keep the previous section's header in the Edit summary field – please fill in your new section's name instead. Thank you.--220 of ^Borg 06:02, 19 December 2014 (UTC)

Overlinking

Please be wary of over-linking. See WP:Overlink. This is mainly in relation to your many edits in October to List of massacres in Australia. We don't link common terms or the same term repeatedly --220 of ^Borg 09:55, 19 December 2014 (UTC)
