How you can help

Hello, and welcome to WIkipedia. I came across this article because when articles have certain kinds of errors in their citations the article is automatically listed at Category:CS1_errors. Occasionally, when I am in the mood, I'll work through some of these lists correcting the errors. Very boring work I'm sure to many people but I enjoy it because I come across articles that I otherwise would never know anything about, and do something useful in the process. In Adam Cohen (journalist) I corrected the citation errors and in doing so I needed to check the source, so while I was about it I added that the relevant detail was in the appendix. Having looked at the source I was interested enough to have a read through the article and make a few minor corrections and a wikilink. With regards to the date, it wasn't so much the format of the date, but that the date was complete - an access-date must have day, month and year for the template to work properly. I hope that answers your question. Thank you for your edits and I hope you'll stay and find other articles to improve. Best wishes Poltair (talk) 19:44, 12 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
