Properly citing sources of information in Wikipedia articles is one of the fundamentals of writing a good Wikipedia article. There are a number of resources designed to facilitate properly and easily citing articles in a consistent manner.
To cite a book, use the {{cite book}} template; details are atciting books. To cite a journal, use the {{cite journal}} template; details are atciting journal articles. To list your citations at the end of an article, use the {{reflist}} template which will cause an automatic generation of a reference list.
If you wish to use the same citation more than once in the same article, you can name the tag by modifying the <ref> tag on the first usage to <ref name=blah>; subsequent usage of the citation would simply need a single self-closing <ref name=blah/> tag instead of the fully tagged citation.
If an article needs a reference but you do not know the reference, you can place the flag {{Fact|date=Month Year}} in lieu of the reference. Once identified, anotherWikipedian may add a proper reference. For more information see thecitation needed page.

Hi, I noticed that in addition to sharing an alma mater, we also share an interest in at least some primates. I was wondering if you were interested in joining thePrimate WikiProject.Rlendog (talk)17:46, 16 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

One of my goals as resident, is to work with Wikipedians and staff to improve content on Wikipedia about people who have collections held in the Archives - most of these are scientists who held roles within the Smithsonian and/or federal government. I thought you might like to participate since you are interested in the sciences! Sign up to participatehere and dive into articles needing expansion and creation on ourto-do list. Feel free to make a request for images or materials at therequest page, and of course, if you share your successes at theoutcomes page you will receive the SIA barnstar! Thanks for your interest, and I look forward to your participation!SarahStierch (talk)03:51, 21 April 2012 (UTC)[reply] |
Dust off your Polaroid camera and pack your best lenses. The first-everWikipedia Takes St. Louis photo hunt kicks off Sat, Sept. 15, at 12:30pm in downtown St. Louis. Tour the streets of the Rome of the West with other Wikipedians and even learn a little St. Louis history. This event is a fun and collaborative way to enhance St. Louis articles with visual content. Novice photographers welcome!Marcus Qwertyus (talk)00:44, 2 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
