Hi, I see that you've added sections on models to several articles - I've had to fix them up, because you put the source so that it appeared in the text; in each case, I enclosed your ref in <ref>...</ref> tags, like this; and sometimes needed to add a references section containing a {{reflist}} as well. In one case I needed to move your new section up a bit, to stay clear of the standard appendices. See WP:CITEBEGIN to find out more. --Redrose64 (talk) 23:42, 17 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Hi
You commented on my editing and if I did it wrong I apologise, I copied from another page. However, your amendments just seem to confuse the issue. I don't see the need for a reference. Just need a link from Silver Fox Models to the page on the website. Just want to keep it as simple as possible.
I've moved your reply here so that we can keep it all in one place
OK, it's possible that the page that you copied from was itself laid out incorrectly - which page was it?
There is a general need for references on Wikipedia, since we have a policy on verifiability; but it is preferred to use a third-party source, such as a review in a reputable modelling magazine like Railway Modeller or British Railway Modelling. Links to a manufacturer's website aren't third-party, so if they are not being used as a reference, they must satisfy the guideline on external links. In particular, see WP:ELPOINTS and MOS:APPENDIX regarding placement; and WP:ELNO regarding the types of links that are prohibited (such as item 5 "links to individual web pages that primarily exist to sell products or services"). So, if you could find some magazine reviews, that'd be great.
I won't be online this afternoon, since I shall be at the meetup in Reading. You're welcome to come along if you like . --Redrose64 (talk) 09:51, 18 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
