User talk:Jacques Paquin

Re DonQuixote Glad to see someone else has noticed - I have paused wiki editing due to him wonder what can be done - maybe a 'return the favor'   RokkoRokkoRokkanno (talk) 03:51, 19 January 2018 (UTC) I will keep watch on him, to see if he is constantly doing this to others. Thank you for your response.--Jacques Paquin (talk) 22:21, 29 January 2018 (UTC)

Adding references can be easy
Hello! Here's how to add references from reliable sources for the content you add to Wikipedia. This helps maintain the Wikipedia policy of verifiability.

Adding well formatted references is actually quite easy:
 * 1) While editing any article or a wikipage, on the top of the edit window you will see a toolbar which says "Cite". Click on it.
 * 2) Then click on "Templates".
 * 3) Choose the most appropriate template and fill in as many details as you can. This will add a well formatted reference that is helpful in case the web URL (or "website link") becomes inactive in the future.
 * 4) Click on Preview when you're done filling out the 'Cite (web/news/book/journal)' to make sure that the reference is correct.
 * 5) Click on Insert to insert the reference into your editing window content.
 * 6) Click on Show preview to Preview all your editing changes.
 * Before clicking on Publish changes, check that a References header  ==References==  is near the end of the article.
 * And check that    is directly underneath that header.
 * 7.Click on Publish changes. ...and you've just added a complete reference to a Wikipedia article.

You can read more about this on Help:Edit toolbar or see this video File:RefTools.ogv.

 * PS - Thank you for adding a ref to Battle of Jumonville Glen. I did notice that your ref was a bare URL but since they can be prone to WP:LINKROT I thought this "help" might be useful to you. Shearonink (talk) 04:55, 4 December 2022 (UTC)
