Notes on this revised version

InterstellarGamer12321 (talk | contribs) made some suggestions at Need_suggestions_for_Draft:Nguyen_Ngoc_Bich, in particular, read WP:ESSAY, Wikipedia:Writing better articles, WP:NPOV, WP:MOS.

Below are the features of this revised version based on these suggestions:

  • Biography models: Lenin, Qian_Xuesen, Roger_Y._Tsien: I used these articles as biography models, while including extensive and precise Notes with quotations from on authoritative history books. I identify the following problems that are solved in the format that I created for the present article Draft:Nguyen Ngoc Bich:
    • Problems in Lenin, version 02:34, 25 July 2024: In Section Rererences, there are "footnotes," which are actually "citations," whereas the actual references are in Section "Bibliography." Very confusing. There are just three and very thin Notes, with no quotations. The statements in the article are thus not easy to verify. The foreign-language sources are not easily accessible. In contrast, the article Nakba, version at 21:11, 24 July 2024 has extensive quotations, mixed with references, and is thus still not well organized as in the present article Draft:Nguyen Ngoc Bich (see also "Verifiability and readability" below).
    • Problems in Qian Xuesen, version 10:40, 17 July 2024: In Section References, there are citations mixed with references, with no Notes. Citing the same reference, but with different page numbers, led to many duplicated lines (with different page numbers), e.g., citations No.32-34, 36-37, 39-40, 43, etc. are all from the reference Chang (1995), to which there is no link. One has to scroll down to find the book by Chang (1995) in Section "Sources," Subsection "Work cited." There is thus no links to connect the citations to the book and vice versa. The present format in Draft:Nguyen Ngoc Bich is more compact, avoiding repetitions (with the cited page numbers next to the cited reference as superscripts in the text), and with forward and backward links between the citations, notes, and references.
    • Problems in Roger_Y._Tsien: Notes and quotations are mixed with references.
  • Verifiability and readability: Unlike the article Lenin---which has extensive references, but few quotations from the referred sources, and thus left much to be desired (such as it is hard to access certain foreigh-language sources to verify)---the article Nakba, version at 21:11, 24 July 2024, also had extensive quotations, mixed with the references, in its Section References, and therefore quite messy. Here, I designed a format that allows for quotations from authoritative sources to be gathered in Section Notes, and yet keep the Notes (with quotations) separated from the references (which are not mixed with quotations). Flexibility: There can be as many sources as needed that can be cited in each Note, and each Note can include references to other Notes. This is not possible using the template {{efn}} and {{sfn}}, since it is not possible to refer to another Note within a Note.
  • Avoiding problem with {{efn}} in image caption: When using the template {{efn}} in image caption, there is an error, as documented in Section "Error when using {{Efn}} in figure captions and galleries" in c:User talk:Egm4313. Using the present format, there is no such error when referring to a Note in an image caption.
  • Style, version 22:14, 22 March 2023: Inverted pyramid: The most important historical facts that yielded notability are presented first, followed by facts with decreasing importance and/or notability. See also Information style and tone.
  • New structure with shortened titles: Broke down the article into smaller sections with concise titles in WP:NPOV style (removed praising adjectives). See Point 4 "Neutral: it represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each" in Wikipedia:Good article criteria, which is referred to in Wikipedia:Good articles.
  • Additional historical facts with extensive references: Extended the article to add many historical facts surrounding Nguyen Ngoc Bich, together with extensive references and notes. See Point 2 "Verifiable with no original research" in Wikipedia:Good article criteria, which is referred to in Wikipedia:Good articles.
  • Historic photos: Added relevant historic photos to pique the interest of readers. "A picture is worth a thousand words." An article without pictures is boring. See Point 6 "Illustrated, if possible, by media such as images, video, or audio" in Wikipedia:Good article criteria, which is referred to in Wikipedia:Good articles.

Help:Link,

Specifics

[edit]

When a link contains a section title (as in the examples above), the title actually points to an HTML anchor on the target page. In addition to anchors created automatically by section titles, there are times when it's advantageous to create an anchor on a smaller unit of text, such as a specific paragraph (see § Linking to part of a section below). This can be done using {{Anchor|anchor name}}, or alternatively, the HTML code <span id="anchor name">...</span> (see {{Anchor}} syntax). Anchors are also used when renaming a section, yet still allowing links to the old name to function, or similarly, allowing linking to a section using an abbreviation; see MOS:HEADINGS for more info. Links to anchors can also be added to external URLs and to interwiki links, again using the # syntax.

Section What_is_an_"anchor"?

Help:HTML_in_wikitext

Template:Anchor: The basic format is . To link to an anchor from within the same page, use display text. To link to an anchor from another page, use display text. See Help:Link § Section linking (anchors) for more details.

Basic format

You can define one or more anchor names, separated by |. This can be useful for alternative spellings, such as "humor" and "humour."

In general, if the intended target of an anchor is a section title, then it should be placed at the end of the section header by substitution: == Section header{{subst:anchor|Anchor name}} ==

which will be saved in the article as: == Section header<span class="anchor" id="Anchor name"></span> ==

NOTE: It is not necessary to use class="anchor"; only need to use id="anchor name" is sufficient to define an anchor.

Anchor names are case sensitive, so #Anchor name and #Anchor Name are not equivalent. When making an anchor, in general capitalize the first letter of the anchor name, and follow the same capitalization guidelines as headers (see Manual of Style: Headers for more information).

Bao Dai to de Gaulle
I beg you to understand that the only means of safeguarding French interests and the spiritual influence of France in Indochina is to recognize the independence of Vietnam unreservedly and to renounce any idea of reestablishing French sovereignty or rule here in any form. . . . Even if you were to reestablish the French administration here, it would not be obeyed, and each village would be a nest of resistance. . . . We would be able to understand each other so easily and become friends if you would stop hoping to become our masters again.

<div style="font-size:80%; background-color:lightyellow; border:1px outset black; padding:10px; border-radius: 10px;"> ... </div>

Example:

The Note link-labels, such as N.bda in superscript, are unique identifiers for the corresponding Notes, with "N" standing for "Note", followed by a period and three or four characters summarizing the Note contents, e.g., "bda" for "Bao Dai abdication," which is the title (in italics) of the Note N.bda. In front of each Note, the uparrow ↑ preceeding a Note link such as (↑ N.bda) indicates the link to jump back UP to the main text where the link N.bda appears.

The target of the link (↑ N.bda) is the HTML anchor with the code <span id="Bao Dai abdication jump"></span> having the anchor name being "Bao Dai abdication jump", without an Anchor_text (or link text, or link label) inside. The code [[#Bao Dai abdication jump|N.bda]] creates the link (see Help:Link) with label "N.bda" to jump back UP to the main text where the anchor with anchor name "Bao Dai abdication jump" was embedded.

Minimum in-line citations

[edit]

Comment: mixed referencing format. stick to one, either footnotes or inline citations. for biographies, it is highly encouraged to use inline citations. – robertsky (talk) 13:41, 3 March 2023 (UTC)

When you must use inline citations

Our sourcing policies do not require an inline citation for any other type of material, although it is typical for editors to voluntarily exceed these minimum standards. However any material lacking an inline citation to a reliable source that directly supports the material may be removed and should not be restored without an inline citation to a reliable source. Substantially exceeding them is a necessity for any article to be granted good or featured article (or list) status. The featured article criteria, for example, require that articles seeking to exemplify Wikipedia's very best work must be "well-researched," defined as a "thorough and representative survey of the relevant literature", presented by "consistently formatted inline citations using footnotes". If you can't find the source of a statement without an inline citation after a good-faith look, ask on the talk page, or request a citation. As of 2022, there was no specified amount of inline citation that an article must have before being eligible for nomination as a Featured Article, Good Article, or (when applicable) A-Class article, and no particular style is favored over any other.
