op cit, ibid etc
Wikipedia doesn't really use these as they don't work well with collaborative editing. If you "op cit" something but later someone removes or replaces the original mention of the source, then the "op cit" becomes meaningless. Ditto "ibid". Kerry (talk)

October 2020
I gather from your message on my Talk page that you and User:JanetThomas2020 are editing in tandem. This is really only a viable idea if you do so privately, before actually making public changes to the articles in question. JanetThomas2020 is frequently adding unformatted citations and many errors, including formatting issues that damage the readability of the page. It is creating quite a bit of cleanup work.

I'm messaging you in hopes of starting a conversation about this - JanetThomas2020 does not seem to be reading her Talk page.

If I've misunderstood your earlier message to me, and you have no connection to this other user, please disregard. Thanks, Jessicapierce (talk) 14:33, 23 October 2020 (UTC)
