Adding references can be easy
Hello! Here's how to add references from reliable sources for the content you add to Wikipedia. This helps maintain the Wikipedia policy of verifiability.

Adding well formatted references is actually quite easy:
 * 1) While editing any article or a wikipage, on the top of the edit window you will see a toolbar which says "Cite". Click on it.
 * 2) Then click on "Templates".
 * 3) Choose the most appropriate template and fill in as many details as you can. This will add a well formatted reference that is helpful in case the web URL (or "website link") becomes inactive in the future.
 * 4) Click on Preview when you're done filling out the 'Cite (web/news/book/journal)' to make sure that the reference is correct.
 * 5) Click on Insert to insert the reference into your editing window content.
 * 6) Click on Show preview to Preview all your editing changes.
 * Before clicking on Save page, check that a References header  ==References==  is near the end of the article.
 * And check that    is directly underneath that header.
 * 7.Click on Save page. ...and you've just added a complete reference to a Wikipedia article.

You can read more about this on Help:Edit toolbar or see this video File:RefTools.ogv.

Hope this helps, --Shearonink (talk) 22:52, 8 February 2013 (UTC)

In answer to your Feedback about adding a reference for a section
If I understand you correctly, referencing an entire section really can't be done. You could possibly add a reference to the last sentence in a section, sometimes people use that as a reference for a paragraph. Hope this helps, Shearonink (talk) 22:57, 8 February 2013 (UTC)
 * And upon re-reading your Feedback, editors cannot reference a section header either. Shearonink (talk) 23:01, 8 February 2013 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:Shelton-Portrait Torus.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Shelton-Portrait Torus.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that this media item is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails the first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media item could be found or created that provides substantially the same information or which could be adequately covered with text alone. If you believe this media item is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the file description page and edit it to add, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
 * 2) On the file discussion page, write the reason why this media item is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 16:28, 25 February 2013 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (File:Cloudsandclunkers2003 Peter Shelton SeattleTacomaInternationalAirport.jpg)
Thanks for uploading File:Cloudsandclunkers2003 Peter Shelton SeattleTacomaInternationalAirport.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box.

March 2013
Please do not write or add to an article about yourself, as you apparently did at Peter Shelton (sculptor). Creating an autobiography is strongly discouraged – see our guideline on writing autobiographies. If you create such an article, it may be deleted. If what you have done in life is genuinely notable and can be verified according to our policy for articles about living people, someone else will probably create an article about you sooner or later (see Wikipedians with articles). If you wish to add to an existing article about yourself, please propose the changes on its talk page. Please understand that this is an encyclopedia and not a personal web space or social networking site. If your article has already been deleted, please see: Why was my page deleted?, and if you feel the deletion was an error, please discuss it with the deleting administrator. Thank you.

 * Hi Mandarax, Thank you. This article is not an autobiography.  I was using Ptshelton as a username because I received permission from the artist before writing the article, and I wanted to indicate it was coming from a credible source.  However, I see that this is causing confusion.  I can attest that I have written it myself, and NOT the artist.  The article was created to provide information about a sculptor who has received a lot of exposure recently (L.A. Louver retrospective in 2011 and Sperone Westwater solo exhibition in 2012). This artist is internationally known, with major commissions solo exhibitions, in museums and galleries throughout the world for over 35 years.  I am an independent interest who has followed the work Peter Shelton before writing this article.  I will use my personal username (User talk:Haruelindsey) to make future edits to prevent confusion.  Thank you! Ptshelton (talk) 17:50, 4 March 2013 (UTC)
 * But it is a clear conflict of interest since the subject has asked you to edit on his behalf. I have have tagged it for a COI which should remain until the matter is cleared. As there are multiple issues around tone in the article, it is best that you don't edit the article as we try to maintain neutrality in articles. Wikipedia is not a means of promotion.  freshacconci  talk talk  18:06, 4 March 2013 (UTC)
