Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Arthur Edward Flynn Fawcus, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Keswick. 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.

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Citations

[edit]

Hello! Thank you for your edits to many biographies. You may be interested in having a look at Wikipedia:RefToolbar; this works as a pop-up for to fill in to create detailed references. At the moment you are adding just a link to a main page of a website which is only a very small step away from not adding a reference at all! Could you please include, at the very least, the actual website address of the page from which you have got the info. The more details the better.

For example:

  • Least acceptable detail: <ref>http://www.ukwhoswho.com/view/article/oupww/whoswho/U44047</ref>
  • Better: <ref>{{cite web|title=COE, Jonathan|url=http://www.ukwhoswho.com/view/article/oupww/whoswho/U44047|website=Who's Who 2016|accessdate=19 August 2016}}</ref> = "COE, Jonathan". Who's Who 2016. Retrieved 19 August 2016.
  • Best: <ref>{{cite web|title=COE, Jonathan|url=http://www.ukwhoswho.com/view/article/oupww/whoswho/U44047|website=Who's Who 2016|publisher=Oxford University Press|accessdate=19 August 2016|date=November 2015}}</ref> = "COE, Jonathan". Who's Who 2016. Oxford University Press. November 2015. Retrieved 19 August 2016.

References are there so that details can be checked and built upon. If your reference is just the main page of a website, there is no way of doing that. I hope this helps, and thank you again for your edits. Gaia Octavia Agrippa Talk 15:42, 19 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
