, I think I'm adding footnotes correctly, but maybe I am not? If I insert a hyperlink like this: does that work? Thanks for your patience with me.

P.S. Ok, I think I got it -- if the page doesn't have a references section, I must create one. So I would do that like this?

References

Thanks for being there.

Yep, you've got it! By the way, the various forms of Wikipedia:RefToolbar have some forms that can help you make spiffy formatted references, if that's your pleasure. You click on a button, fill out a form, press "insert" and voila! Cheers, --j⚛e decker^talk 02:10, 16 August 2012 (UTC)

Oh, and one more thing, you may see people use {{Reflist}} for the reference list instead of the tag you used. More or less the same thing. Cheers! --j⚛e decker^talk 02:11, 16 August 2012 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for August 14

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Special Olympics World Games, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Swimming. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 09:16, 14 August 2016 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:Special Olympics World Summer Games Opening Ceremony and Parade of Athletes, with NBA legend Yao Ming.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Special Olympics World Summer Games Opening Ceremony and Parade of Athletes, with NBA legend Yao Ming.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the file description page and add the text {{di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
2. On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. – Finnusertop (talk ⋅ contribs) 17:02, 17 September 2016 (UTC)
