User talk:Clyburn209

Hey Josh, Just working on Wiki assignment 2. Your user page is quite extensive and full of such great information about you... ok. Kkihara (talk) 05:18, 31 March 2011 (UTC)

Sure

Just link me to the page and I'll have a look at it. BTW, if you want to sign your comments on a talk page use four tilde marks (~~~~) Serendi^podous 09:39, 1 April 2011 (UTC)

Hey. Good to hear from you. Blogs in general are somewhat ambiguous; basically, if you can prove that the person writing the blog is of note, and an expert in a relevant field, you can usually use a blog. The blog of a conspiracy theorist or a high school kid doesn't count as a source, unless that particular person is relevant to the article.

To cite websites, the standard format is as follows:

<ref>{{cite web

|title=

|author=

|date=

(or |year=)

|url=

|publisher=

(or |work= if you want the title to be in italics)

|accessdate=

}}</ref>

Accessdates are usually written year-month-day, like this: 2007-06-13

You don't actually have to put each field on a different line, you can do it all in one line, but that makes it easier to see.

For citing multiple facts to the same source, do as follows:

For the first cite, use <ref name=whatever> in place of <ref>

Then, for all subsequent cites, instead of rewriting the cite, just type <ref name=whatever/>

I seriously hope that made sense! :) Serendi^podous 19:56, 9 April 2011 (UTC)
