 * You can use the names, indeed. When you do, you don't have to repeat the content of the citation. defines the citation, then you can use it again by just coding . You can find lots more at Help:Footnotes. Have fun! -- Mikeblas (talk) 20:15, 12 June 2019 (UTC)

Duplicate reference?
In your comment for your last edit of It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas, you suggest I created a duplicate reference with my edit. Can you explain why? All I did was make a slight chance in the text ('as part of the album' --> 'on the album'). It seems what you edited had to do with the Czech and Slovakian chart positions, which I certainy didn't touch. Which duplicate reference do you think I created?

 * Oops! Sorry about that; looks like it was in this edit by User:ManuelButera. -- Mikeblas (talk) 17:35, 18 June 2019 (UTC)

OrphanReferenceFixer: Help on reversion
Hi there! I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. Recently, you [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?oldid=903576191&diff=prev reverted] my fix to Comparison of instant messaging clients.

If you did this because the references should be removed from the article, you have misunderstood the situation. Most likely, the article originally contained both  and one or more   referring to it. Someone then removed the  but left the , which results in a big red error in the article. I replaced one of the remaining  with a copy of the  ; I did not re-insert the reference to where it was deleted, I just replaced one of the remaining instances. What you need to do to fix it is to make sure you remove all instances of the named reference so as to not leave any big red error.

If you reverted because I made an actual mistake, please be sure to also correct any reference errors in the page so I won't come back and make the same mistake again. Also, please post an error report at User talk:AnomieBOT so my operator can fix me! If the error is so urgent that I need to be stopped, also post a message at User:AnomieBOT/shutoff/OrphanReferenceFixer. Thanks!
