User:Sammi Brie/Uw-clip
Appearance
Hello, and thank you for your efforts to improve Wikipedia—in particular for adding references! Newspaper databases are extremely useful for creating references, but they should be clipped when possible. Creating clippings allows non-subscribers and non-editors to view the content of the publication and permits page archival. For more information on how to clip pages, see Wikipedia:Clipping. Once again, thanks for adding references to articles.
