Hi Horsebird. I'll reply to you here on your talk page so that you are notified by the orange message bar. The note at the top of the article is just a suggestion to improve the article. This page gives more information about Wikipedia's citation styles. Listing the references at the bottom of the article is absolutely acceptable, so please use whatever citation method you are most comfortable with. I added the note to your article and not any of the others you mentioned because I came across it on Special:Newpages, a listing of Wikipedia's newest articles. Steven Miller is a good new article, so kudos for creating it :-) Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if I can help with anything. Bláthnaid 15:26, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
- You can remove a notice you disagree with from the top of any article. It is not necessary to ask the person who added the notice to remove it. Just give the reason why you are removing the notice in your edit summary. Also, to sign your messages, just type four tildes: ~~~~. Regards, Bláthnaid 15:30, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for adding information on credits to Ariel Boundaries. I added the citation tag and "Who"?... statements like "considered to be one of the greatest..." should have a citation or who said it or will probably end up getting removed by someone. Thanks again! Airproofing (talk) 20:58, 16 October 2008 (UTC)
