User talk:Emreetz

Hello Emreetz! I noticed your recent change to Gibbon, Nebraska, in which you inserted the population from the 2010 census. Unfortunately, you didn't include a source for that, and we really need one for information like that.

It's not terribly hard to create footnotes. There's a lot of information about it at HELP:FOOT. If you're having difficulty figuring it out, please feel free to leave a note at my talk page. (If you're new to this, you do that by clicking the "Talk" after my username, then editing the page; I'd suggest that you start a new section for this, by clicking the "New section" tab near the top right of the page.)

Hope that you stay around Wikipedia and do more work on Nebraska-related articles. We've got too few editors working in the state right now, and there are lots of articles that need to be written or improved. Let me know if there's anything I can do to help--

 * Oh, and if I could suggest something else: When you make an edit, put a brief explanation in the "Edit summary" box right above the "Save page" button. Something like "Added 2010 population" would have been ample.  This tells other editors what you did and helps them decide whether or not they want to check up on a recent edit.  Also, people who vandalize WP articles often don't leave an edit summary, so the absence of one is a red flag.  Ammodramus (talk) 19:03, 12 December 2011 (UTC)
