A quick note about references

[edit]

Just a quick FYI about references. You might want to read WP:REFB, especially the section on using references more than once, i.e. named references. See my edit here. The same reference was being used twice. When this is done, it can just be named and then the name used in place of the second reference. You'll see in the references section of the article that a small "a,b" appears showing both instances of the reference. Dismas|(talk) 14:47, 26 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks a lot for the explanation. I did this use the ("automatic") edit option. Will edit the source code as described next time.Tostada (talk) 14:57, 26 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Yep, no problem. I've never used the visual editor, which is what I think you're using, so I'm not sure how you would name a reference in that. I'm more comfortable looking at the source code since I can see exactly what's being done. Dismas|(talk) 15:50, 26 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
