[edit] I noticed that you have posted comments in a language other than English. When on the English-language Wikipedia, please always use English, no matter to whom you address your comments. This is so that comments may be comprehensible to the community at large. If the use of another language is unavoidable, please provide a translation of the comments. For more details, see Wikipedia:Talk page guidelines. Thank you. --Non-Dropframe talk 21:39, 11 February 2012 (UTC)
Welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for creating an account and making contributions to the article and thank you for your feedback. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here on Wikipedia we try to make sure that the information that we publish is reliable. Our way of doing this is to ask our editors to say where the information that they are adding came from. After adding a fact editors have to add a reference so that others can check that it is real. To be accepted it must be from a reliable source such as a book, a journal, a newspaper or a trusted website.
- To add references you must first have a special section for them at the bottom of the page by typing this: ==References== then adding <references/> directly underneath. (This makes the references that you put into the text appear in the correct place under the heading.)
You should end up with this:
References
[edit]
- You can start adding new text to the article and every time you add or change a fact you put a reference at the end of the sentence.
- You can use your Wikipedia toolbar at the top of the editing screen to make things easier for you.
There is a "Cite" toolbar at the top of the edit window which allows you to automatically generate the required wiki code.
You click one of the templates, e.g. "book", and fill in the details.
More information can be found in Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners or the citations tutorial (the below video will play best in Firefox or Chrome):
