Who's B Klug and why should users at large care about what he thinks about coffee? ✈ James C. 21:29, 2005 Jun 7 (UTC)

• If I were reading the article, I would find it helpful to learn that someone (doesn't matter who) thinks that coffee from a French Press, specifically, has a it has a particular (smooth) taste. How else should this be phrased?

B: regarding the AllOfMP3.com page, why are you correcting spelling mistakes on discussion pages? Entries on discussion pages represent users' own thoughts; they shouldn't be edited for any reason, surely, even if they're blatantly grammatically screwed up. (And in any case, "homogenous" is a common usage variant of "homogeneous" - it's not a mistake.) -- Hux 17:48, 13 May 2006 (UTC)

• It did not occur to me that this would be looked down upon. In hindsight, it makes sense. Thanks for the heads up.

I've replied to your comment there. This probably won't be easy. Please don't take it personally. We can get others involved if need be, but I'm hoping we can work it out between us. Told you there I'd drop an instruction sheet here. It will follow this. Thanks. John from Idegon (talk) 20:59, 1 October 2016 (UTC)

Adding references can be easy

Just follow the steps 1, 2 and 3 as shown and fill in the details

Hello! Here's how to add references from reliable sources for the content you add to Wikipedia. This helps maintain the Wikipedia policy of verifiability.

Adding well formatted references is actually quite easy:

1. While editing any article or a wikipage, on the top of the edit window you will see a toolbar which says "Cite". Click on it.
2. Then click on "Templates".
3. Choose the most appropriate template and fill in as many details as you can. This will add a well formatted reference that is helpful in case the web URL (or "website link") becomes inactive in the future.
4. Click on Preview when you're done filling out the 'Cite (web/news/book/journal)' to make sure that the reference is correct.
5. Click on Insert to insert the reference into your editing window content.
6. Click on Show preview to Preview all your editing changes.

• Before clicking on Save page, check that a References header   ==References==   is near the end of the article.
• And check that   {{Reflist}}    is directly underneath that header.

7.  Click on Save page. ...and you've just added a complete reference to a Wikipedia article.

You can read more about this on Help:Edit toolbar or see this video File:RefTools.ogv.
Hope this helps, --John from Idegon (talk) 20:59, 1 October 2016 (UTC)
