Elveden
Hello Schoensm. Welcome to Wikipedia. I have removed your addition from the Elveden article - you added Virginia Woolf's book to the references section, but this is for referencing facts written in the article. Unless Woolf wrote something factual about the village that can be included in the article, then a mention in her book is not worth including in the article.

I'll readily admit to not understanding what Wikipedia means by "references." In my fields of endeavor, it is significant that a major writer like Virginia Woolf has referred to Elveden (albeit apparently misspelling it as "Elvedon" -- as occasionally happens, confirming a statement in the Wikipedia article). If Wikipedia has determined that the public is not entitled to this factual information (the fact that Virginia Woolf did mention the place in the work I cited), then so be it.
