Proposed deletion of Anders J. Dahlin


The article Anders J. Dahlin has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this newly created biography of a living person will be deleted unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the prod blp tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can when you are ready to add one. - Balph Eubank ✉ 20:39, 16 October 2012 (UTC)

about my contibutions on the page please.


 * I assume you are referring to the references in Anders J. Dahlin. The references in the article should be in the form of inline citations and not simply a list of external links. -- Patchy1 10:27, 21 October 2012 (UTC)


 * I tried to add under the ref list...but now it's just chaos. How should it be written? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Zoroastre1 (talk • contribs)


 * References should be added inline like this one here: . You should also use the cite templates to include the title and date retrieved for each reference. These references look like this:  Once you have used the tags, the reflist template consolidates all the references into a list automatically, as shown below. I hope this helps, let me know if you need more help. Also you should add future replies using colons to indent, as I have, so the conversation is easier to follow. Also sign your post using ~ . I also noticed you removed the autobiography tag I added to Anders J. Dahlin, after seeing your note ("Self portrait") in the picture that you uploaded on the article, this leads me to believe you are Anders J. Dahlin. You should read Autobiography before continuing, in a nutshell the guideline reads that Wikipedia has biographies, not autobiographies, and creating an article on yourself is strongly discouraged.  -- Patchy1 01:42, 22 October 2012 (UTC)
