Enthalpy of vaporization
I noticed your recent contributions to the article Enthalpy of vaporization. Thank you! The citing you used was however unclear, and I attempted to elucidate it. The passage you wrote, "There are other simple models, such as 2], which utilizes the data set from 1]"; I assume that 1] refers to the first citation at the article, "Garai, J. (2009)", and 2] to the source you provided, "K. Mayhew, Phys. Essays 26, vol 4, 604 (2013)". Is this correct?

The best method for citing sources at Wikipedia is to add tags around the source in the form of, since the article structure is bound to change, and when new sources are added, the numbers referring to them change, and hand-written numbers no more adhere to the respective sources. This is why the -tags are important, because they automate the referral. The myriad methods and practices of contributing to Wikipedia might seem overwhelming in the beginning, but please do not hesitate to ask for help, either in the relevant group shown in this guide or on my talk page. If this still feels insurmountable, we are still happy to receive your scientific contributions, and Wikipedians will carry out the necessary edits to make the articles readable also by non-experts. ~ Nelg (talk) 23:56, 21 May 2014 (UTC)
