Wikipedia as a reference[edit]

Hi TrevorDev - Just a heads up that we don't use other Wikipedia articles as sources. Basically a person could an article, then use that article as a reference to disseminate inaccurate information across many articles. It just doesn't work if we allow that. EricEnfermero Howdy! 04:00, 21 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the prompt feedback. teh rules are confusing though because I referenced other articles where wikepedia links were used in published articles. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Budget_Direct and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suncorp_Group who both reference wikidedia articles several times. Surely the rules should be consistent?

TrevorDev (talk) 04:22, 21 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

They're consistent. With over 4,000,000 articles, we just haven't found everything wrong with every article yet. We're catching all of yours because we're in the AFC process. We know that people who sign up and go immediately to article creation 1) are often promoting something, which violates the spirit of an encyclopedia and 2) probably don't understand WP's basic rules as well as someone who joins then hangs around making minor edits before doing anything major like a new article. That ability to catch things is what makes AFC such a strong process. EricEnfermero Howdy! 04:38, 21 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Makes sense although it's frustrating and shoudl be clearly addressed in the AFC and citations help info. I'll remove the references and resubmit. Thanks for getting back to me so quickly. TrevorDev (talk) 04:45, 21 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It's there and sufficiently detailed, I think. Knowing that your example article was tagged as having reference problems, from the main WP:AFC page you could click on the "references" hyperlink in that in that first sentence and learn more. From there, there's a single page that gives a pretty good rundown of reliable sources, including the fact that open wikis aren't generally acceptable. AFC editors are admittedly at a disadvantage in learning these rules given their lack of basic editing experience before creating articles, so it either requires a good bit of reading guidelines or a good bit of advice from other editors, which is what you're getting here. Good luck! EricEnfermero Howdy! 05:03, 21 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I've scoured the help pages and can't find a reference to wiki articles being a less relaible source. However I accept your point and have removed them and resubmitted the article. Fingers crossed! TrevorDev (talk) 05:10, 21 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
