Your edits to Daylight Saving Time

[edit]

You have added citations to something written by Downing and Prerau (and maybe Pierce), but you have never added the bibliographic information for this work.

The archives of the talk page indicate the article was considered a good article as of 28 March 2007, and at that time it used citation templates. Thus, I think it should continue to use citation templates. So the way to include the bibliographic information would be something like this:

Typically, regions that use daylight saving time adjust clocks forward one hour close to the start of spring and adjust them backward in the autumn to standard time.<ref name="Downing-Prerau-Pearce">{{Cite book | last1 = Downing | first1 = Mildred | last2= Prerau | first1 = Hiram | last3 = Pearce | first1 = Tiberius | title= Silly Musings | date = 1909 | location = Buel's Gore, VT | publisher = Birch Bark Press}} . . . The practice has both advocates and critics.<ref name="Downing-Prerau-Pearce" />

The works you re-added to the "Further reading" section were used in writing the article so do not belong in the "Further reading" section. See WP:FURTHER. Jc3s5h (talk) 12:42, 19 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Conflict of interest warning

[edit]

I notice that your two periods of editing activity, in 2014 and 2017, revolve around adding 2 books by Chris Pearce to articles. The 2017 edits were for a self-published book, which clearly does not meet WP:RS. Please read Wikipedia's "Conflict of interest" guideline. Jc3s5h (talk) 13:01, 19 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
