{{Hidden|style=width: 50%;|contentstyle=text-align: left;|1=How do I create citations?|2=#Do a search on Google or your preferred search engine for the subject of the Wikipedia article that you want to create a citation for. 
 * 1) Find a website that supports the claim you are trying to find a citation for.
 * 2) In a new tab/window, go to the [//tools.wmflabs.org/makeref/ citation generator], click on the 'An arbitrary website' bubble, and fill out as many fields as you can about the website you just found.
 * 3) Click the 'Get reference wiki text' button.
 * 4) Highlight, and then copy (Ctrl+C or Apple+C), the resulting text (it will be something like, copy the whole thing).
 * 5) In the Wikipedia article, after the claim you found a citation for, paste (Ctrl+V or Apple+V) the text you copied.
 * 6) If the article does not have a References or Notes section (or the like), add this to the bottom of the page, but above the External Links section and the categories:

Gardner edits
Hi, thanks for your recent edits on the Gardner theft. I wrote most of that article, and I'm surprised at how many incorrect page numbers you have found from the Kurkjian book. Are you using the same revision of the book that I did? It was a physical edition. The ISBN I used is on the page. I don't have the book anymore to verify the page numbers.

 * Hi ! I am currently writing the French article about the theft, which did not exist until a few days ago ^^. You did an amazing job with the english version, so I don't have a lot of work to do haha. I am using the version on the internet archive, which can be found here : https://archive.org/details/masterthievesbos0000kurk_d5x4. It is a scanned version of the paper version, which you can borrow unlimited times. So I assume it should be the same as the version you had, I don't really know about that, but this is what I use ^^. But 95 % of the article uses the correct pages, I don't know why just a few are not the same ^^. – --Matteo251 (talk) 19:35, 4 October 2021 (UTC)
 * OK. I'm glad most of the page numbers are correct. Good luck with the translation. TarkusAB talk / contrib 18:44, 9 October 2021 (UTC)
