User talk:Vwwong
Hi, Vwwong, I've responded to your request at Talk:HIV. Let me know what you think. - Nunh-huh 19:33, 13 December 2011 (UTC)
- I've created the new article at Cognitive effects of HIV and inserted your summary (and a link to the main article) in HIV. I've also made you a "confirmed user" which should mean that you are now able to contribute directly to articles. Let me know if you need any help or have any difficulties. - Nunh-huh 14:26, 16 December 2011 (UTC)
- I'm going to work a bit on the references. Let me show you a few ways we make referencing easier on Wikipedia.
- If you are going to use a reference more than once, it's best to use the citation template and named references.
- You use the citation template as a "fill-in-the-blanks" way to create a footnote. Here's a template that you can use: {{Citation | last = | first = | last2 = | first2 = | title = | journal = | volume = | issue = | pages = | year = | pmid = | doi = }}. You fill in the data (you can include up to nine author names) and place it between the <ref> and </ref> tags. Wiki will format the data so that references are consistent. Providing the pmid or doi allows us to directly link to the article.
- You use named references to avoid repetition. For a named reference, instead of opening with the <ref> tag, you open with <ref name = TheNameYouPickforTheReference>. Usually this will be a short name, like the first authors surname, or the first author's surname plus the year if you are going to reference more than one work by that author (so <ref name=Clark> or <ref name = Smith2007>). Then on subsequent uses, instead of a complete citation, you would just use <ref name=Smith2007/>. I usually name all references even if I don't know in advance if they're going to be used more than once.
- Also, in general, we put the ref tag after the punctuation of a sentence, not before.
- Don't worry too much about this as there are always people working to clean up references and such, and it takes a while to get the hang of these things. - Nunh-huh 15:46, 16 December 2011 (UTC)
