Help
Can anyone help explain what I need to do next to get my article "Michael Colina" published in Wikipedia? It's now in sandbox mode; how do I get someone to review or approve it?Pngiles (talk) 14:05, 22 October 2010 (UTC)


 * To get feedback on an article draft, you should go to Requests for feedback and follow the instructions there. However, before doing that you really must provide reliable sources for the claims in the article.  This is especially important as it is a biography of a living person.

User:Pngiles/Michael Colina
As discussed, articles need references to reliable sources. All the facts need to be verifiable - that is, the reader should be able to check them. We do that using 'inline references', as shown below.  Chzz  ► 14:19, 22 October 2010 (UTC)

Simple references
These require two parts;


 * a)

Chzz is 98 years old.

He likes tea.


 * b) A section called "References" with the special code " ";

Named references
Chzz was born in 1837.

Chzz lives in Footown.

Note that the second usage has a / (and no closing ref tag). This needs a reference section as above; please see user:chzz/demo/namedref to see the result.

Citation templates
You can put anything you like between, but using citation templates makes for a neat, consistent look;

Chzz has 37 Olympic medals.

Please see user:chzz/demo/citeref to see the result.

For more help and tips on that subject, see user:chzz/help/refs.
