Your submission at Articles for creation


I noticed your submission in Articles for creation, Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Prestel Publishing. Thanks! It will be reviewed by a volunteer soon.

Before it can be added to Wikipedia, your submission should have references. All articles on Wikipedia should have inline, numbered references after facts, showing the 'reliable source' (a newspaper, book, etc.) where the information can be checked, so that all information is verifiable.

Here's an example of how to add references: Chzz is 98 years old.&lt;ref> "The book of Chzz", Aardvark Books, 2009. &lt;/ref>

He likes tea.&lt;ref> Smith, John. " Interview with Chzz", Foo News, 1 April 2010. Retrieved 2011-05-22.

== References ==

That makes the references automatically display as small numbers[1] which will link to the details in the section titled == References == at the end. You can see that example in action here.

Please add references to your submission, which will be reviewed as soon as possible. See also, Referencing for beginners. If you need any help, just put at the end of this page, followed by a question or get into our live help chat chanel at.

Tokyogirl79 (talk) 07:36, 1 December 2011 (UTC) This is a very good start but it needs more reliable sources (WP:RS) to show that Prestel is notable outside of Random House per WP:CORP. I see that you have one source but you should have at least 2-3 reliable sources. The company's website isn't generally considered a reliable source, if you're wondering. I don't want you to get disheartened since this is a great start, especially since it's your first edits here on Wikipedia. It just needs a little more work. I recommend that you look into WikiProject Books since it's a group that dedicates itself to improving literature related articles. They would be an invaluable help. I also recommend using one of the existing articles about publishing houses as a guide to how the article should be formatted and what could be considered reliable sources. Random House would probably be a good start since you might find something that could be used as a reliable source. Tokyogirl79 (talk) 07:36, 1 December 2011 (UTC)tokyogirl79
