@Doug Weller hi is there a quick link to add a citation? Michaeolson (talk) 10:45, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
See Help:Referencing for beginners. And please write your own edit summaries always, the dropdown menus are convenient but so often misused many don't trust them. Doug Weller talk 10:50, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Birth dates

[edit]

All material needs to be verifiable using reliable sources, but we are particularly careful about birthdays for living people. See WP:DOB. Doug Weller talk 10:43, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Stew Peters should be called Peters, not Stew

[edit]

As this is an encyclopedia, we should use fairly formal language. Using Scott was ok as we need to distinguish him from his family, but please change Stew to Peters. Thanks. Doug Weller talk 09:55, 7 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
