- Find a website that supports the claim you are trying to find a citation for.
- In a new tab/window, go to the citation generator, click on the 'An arbitrary website' bubble, and fill out as many fields as you can about the website you just found.
- Click the 'Get reference wiki text' button.
- Highlight, and then copy (Ctrl+C or Apple+C), the resulting text (it will be something like
<ref> {{cite web | .... }}</ref>, copy the whole thing). - In the Wikipedia article, after the claim you found a citation for, paste (Ctrl+V or Apple+V) the text you copied.
- If the article does not have a References or Notes section (or the like), add this to the bottom of the page, but above the External Links section and the categories:
==References==

Welcome! and Thanks!
[edit]Hello Joshua and a big welcome to WIkipedia! I am happy to be able to welcome you even though you started making edits back in April. Today I checked a listing and was very happy to see that you just made a stub article about a sea snail, Buchema nigra. I wanted to thank you very much for that. As you will see I fixed your article up a little, including adding it to some categories. I also wanted to give you this invitation. I don't know if you are particularly interested in snails (?), but there is a very informal group of editors on WIkipedia who work on improving our coverage of snails and slugs. The name of the group is WikiProject Gastropods.

I've noticed your edits on pages relating to Gastropods; perhaps you'd be interested in joining WikiProject Gastropods? If you would like more information, please visit the project page or the project talk page. |
Anyway, welcome again and thanks for your work! if you have any questions or comments please feel free to ask me on my talk page. Best wishes, Invertzoo (talk) 13:28, 25 July 2013 (UTC)
The article Tullio De Piccoli has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- Not notable
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
