- Hi Rasnaboy,
- Thank you so much for the kind welcome! I so appreciate that!
- I’m still trying to learn all the many different criteria for getting an approved article :-)
- Using the four tildes for signing my name, can you show it to me in an example? I’m not entirely sure what the context is? I’m a quick learner though (and have been contributing to Wikiforums all night last night too haha… Trying to review pages, as mine - for some reason might not be live for another 4 months because of a backlog?). But I suppose I can keep editing it as a draft, and start researching how to find more people with beautiful backgrounds, I am inspired to do bios on haha…
- Thank you again for taking the time to write me!
- Best,

- Do a search on Google or your preferred search engine for the subject of the Wikipedia article that you want to create a citation for.
- Find a website that supports the claim you are trying to find a citation for.
- In a new tab/window, go to the citation generator, click on the 'An arbitrary website' bubble, and fill out as many fields as you can about the website you just found.
- Click the 'Get reference wiki text' button.
- Highlight, and then copy (Ctrl+C or Apple+C), the resulting text (it will be something like
<ref> {{cite web | .... }}</ref>, copy the whole thing). - In the Wikipedia article, after the claim you found a citation for, paste (Ctrl+V or Apple+V) the text you copied.
- If the article does not have a References or Notes section (or the like), add this to the bottom of the page, but above the External Links section and the categories:
==References==
{{Reflist}}
Disambiguation link notification for October 8
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited ETC Group (eco-justice), you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Alignment and Affiliation. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

- Thank you for the feedback. I didn’t know that (still learning). I’ve just been trying to do as many reviews as possible, so this is very helpful.

Hello, I'm LR.127. I noticed that you recently removed content from Brian E. Kinsella without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.

- OMG, thank you for letting me know! I removed it, as I was going to try to write it more fluently, it was my first article. I didn’t mean to disrupt anything. Can I do that, or should I just edit randomly? Mwikiforce (talk) 21:14, 18 July 2024 (UTC)
