Mmangan333 (talk) 01:10, 1 October 2020 (UTC)I have been saved! Thanks so much for your help.[reply]

I remain stumped on how to fix the first two references. 1 and 2 are the same, but I couldn't figure out how to a/b them.

I've added a few more things before it moves to a really public page, and am waiting on a little more help from an expert on this lace.

To a/b the same reference, on the first ref add "name=XXX" (eg <ref name="nyt">), complete of anything of the template "cite" (url, title etc). On the second ref use only <ref name="nyt"/> (you can see the ref with the final "/"), but without the cite template. --Camelia (talk) 05:43, 1 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Mmangan333 (talk) 12:12, 1 October 2020 (UTC)oh oh oh--I see now! I couldn't figure it out, but then I looked at the Torchon Lace page to see where that needed to go. Hilariously, one of the named refs on that page is the exact same one I wanted to do and I was briefly perplexed by that. Thanks again, Camelia![reply]

Help arrived 😉

Hi, here I am as you asked :-D. I think you did a wonderful work, congratulations, were so little things to change. I formatted the text by creating the section History, moved the second picture some rows up, and created the section of the References. As you can see going on Edit wikitext, you only need to create a section (the code of a section is == Name of the section == and then use the template {{Reflist}} which "collect" all your <ref></ref> inserted previously on the text. I think the page can be published, so to you, this honor, is your work :-). Just move it from your user namespace to he main one: Tabe Page -> Move -> from the "New title" combobox switch to (Article) -> Ipswich Lace instead of Mmangan333/sandbox. That's it. Thank you so much, this article is about something that is not so covered, is great to have experts on this. --Camelia (talk) 19:59, 30 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

COI disclosure

I'm going to add a reference to this piece that is an article in the International Organization of Lace bulletin. I am the author of the piece, so I wanted to disclose this. But I have no financial relationship to IOLI or Ipswich lace, I'm merely a volunteer, unpaid writer sharing this information with he lace community. But if people are really interested in this lace for future scholarship purposes, they should know about this article which is probably a little obscure outside of the lacemakers. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mmangan333 (talk • contribs) 16:02, 12 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
