Setshele I[edit]

Setshele I

5x expanded by Amandajm (talk). Self nominated at 09:25, 20 March 2013 (UTC).

  • 5x expansion verified. New enough, long enough, well-referenced. However, I am having some trouble verifying the references and checking them for close paraphrasing because page numbers are not given for some books. The page number (p. 69) in footnote 6, for example, probably refers to one of the five citations for this book that appear in the article. I found the part about Sechele's first marriage on p. 35. Could you break out the various cites into the proper page numbers, please? (You would give the whole formatted reference on the first cite, and then write, for example, <ref>Sillery, Anthony (1974), p. 35.</ref> on the following cite.) Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 19:37, 30 March 2013 (UTC)
  • I just went through the rest of the references and found everything in order, with no close paraphrasing. Yoninah (talk) 19:53, 30 March 2013 (UTC)
  • Fixed. Another editor, tidier than me, had nicely formatted the refs and inserted that page number. I've now broken the Sillery references into individual refers for different pages. Amandajm (talk) 01:43, 31 March 2013 (UTC)
  • Thank you. No close paraphrasing seen. QPQ done. Hook ref verified. Good to go. Yoninah (talk) 14:21, 31 March 2013 (UTC)
