Copyright problem on German General Staff
In the future, please add attribution when copying from public domain sources: simply add the template after your citation. I have done so for the above article. Please do this in the future so that our readers will be aware that you copied the prose rather than wrote it yourself. Thanks, — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 12:23, 12 December 2017 (UTC)

Lawrence Bragg
Please be more careful with your edits to Lawrence Bragg, I have undone two already, one removed numerous references and links, another broke a reference called elsewhere in the article. You also seem to be introducing American spelling contrary to WP:ENGVAR. I suggest you make smaller edits, and WP:PREVIEW them to check the effect they have.

Battle of Wörth citations
Hi: last February you made some edits to Battle of Wörth that included references (using sfn) to Moltke 1892, Ollier 1873, and Moltke 1907. But there is no target for those citations. Ideally they should be generated by a cite book or similar (and, I believe, a "ref=harv" parameter to provide a target to match the sfn). Can you take a look?

I came here to put inline footnotes to flesh out the EB1911 citation. It turns out that the article's text is almost entirely lifted from Maude's EB1911 original; see the original June 2003 creation, which still comprises the bulk of the article today. Did Maude copy from Moltke and Ollier, or are you just pointing to parallel descriptions of the battle? David Brooks (talk) 23:57, 29 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Adding: By "Maude" I meant the credited author of the EB1911 article, s:Author:Frederic Natusch Maude. You can see how little the body of the WP article has changed here. Normally I would tag each paragraph with a but just wanted to know the relationship between the text and your sources. David Brooks (talk) 15:01, 30 January 2020 (UTC)

I have come here independently of David Brooks and have the same question (having just added inline citations to EB1911). On 19 February 2019 you made a series of edits to the article Battle of Wörth (diffs). You added a series of short inline citations, but unfortunatly you did not add the support source to the References list at the bottom so we now have in the article a series of short inline citations eg  and   Please add the corresponding full citation to the References list at the bottom as has been done for:
 * In text citation.
 * References full source

If you do not add the long reference I will revert the edits (Under WP:CHALLENGE) because most of the text is supported by the EB1911 article (see this earwig diff). However I would prefer that your more up to date citations remain in the article so please do it soon. -- PBS (talk) 16:05, 5 June 2020 (UTC)
