trouble adding reference
I am new to wikipedia: How do I add a reference to a reference list that has already been createdMerida12 (talk) 00:44, 28 April 2009 (UTC)
 * See Footnotes. If to the article – replacing   with the actual file name of the image, and   with a short description of the image. See our picture tutorial for more information.
 * If you want to upload an image from your computer, for use in an article, you must find out what is the proper license of the image. If you know the image is licensed under a free-license, upload it to the Wikimedia Commons instead of here, so that all projects have access to the image (sign up). If you are unsure what license your image is licensed under, see the file upload wizard for more information. Please also read Wikipedia's image use policy. Hope this helps.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 23:13, 28 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Since you already have an account on the English Wikipedia, you can unify your account to work on Commons via Special:MergeAccount. Also note that copyright law and licensing can be very complicated, depending on what you want to do. We could give you much more specific advice if you tell us what images you want to upload, or use, and what Wikipedia article(s) you want to put them in. You can read all the manuals, and you should eventually do that, but initially they will look very complicated because they have to deal with so many possible cases. If you tell us your particular case, we can give you relatively simple instructions. --Teratornis (talk) 23:27, 28 April 2009 (UTC)

Technical Noticeboard
Where is the technical "noticeboard"?

There seems to be problems with the watchlist function: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Help_desk#Watchlist WhatisFeelings? (talk) 23:41, 28 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Village pump (technical), but you might want to read Help:Watchlist first; it might answer your question. Xenon54 (talk) 00:05, 29 April 2009 (UTC)
