Add reference list to the article talk page

You and DionneCoe need to add at least three references to the talk page of the Use of Force article. I see that there's one reference listed, but there's no signature. Also, there's a reference listed in DionneCoe's talk page, but not on the article talk page. Profmwilliams (talk) 17:19, 4 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Add your article to your user page

You need to add the article you're working on to your user page. You might want to organize your user page by adding a new section entitled, "Pages I'm editing" and then putting the internal link to the Wikipedia page in that section. To do so, go to your user page, click the "New Section" tab at the top right of the page. In the body of the section, click the icon to insert a link and just type the name of the page you're working on. After a second or two, you should see a message that says "Page Exists" which means that it found the Wikipedia page and will create an internal link to it rather than an external link like the one you currently have on there.

Peel's "Principles of Law Enforcement"

It's public domain, but you do still need to source it -- sourcing is so readers can see where you got the information and check it; public domain relates to copyright, which is relevant to the question of whether you can use the material verbatim. Hence being public domain doesn't affect the need for sourcing. I'm at work but will try to answer in more detail tonight or tomorrow; but basically, if you can find a reliable source with the principles in, you can cite that source. I would think plenty of reference works have the list. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 18:15, 24 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
