About references in Myra Schneider
[edit]Hi Daphnewilliamson, and thank you for your great work on the Myra Schneider article.
As I'm sure you are aware, biographies of living people must be well-referenced. You most certainly have done that, but in a way that's a little bit different to preferred Wikipedia citation guidelines. In a nutshell, citations in the body of an article should be inside "<ref>" citation description here "</ref>" tags. This way they will always be automatically added to the "References" section, without the need to add citation numbers.
I'll add an example into the article very soon. Again, thank you for your contributions, and please don't hesitate to to contact me. --Shirt58 (talk) 11:55, 2 January 2011 (UTC)
- Daphnewilliamson, thanks again for your contributions, but they are still using a citation method that may not be appropriate for Wikipedia. Could you possibly have a look at the Wikipedia citation guidelines again? Thank you! --Shirt58 (talk) 11:47, 3 January 2011 (UTC)
