Hi There, I want to cite news articles, books, publishers websites, etc., in order to compile a historical record of an artist's career. I don't necessarily want to create an article. Can you help guide me on how to achieve this for a Wikipedia page? --Rsharpart (talk) 03:44, 1 September 2024 (UTC)
- Hi, thank you for your question! There are a number of ways you can add citations to an existing article (or curate them for future use).
- If you already have your sources, to add them to an article, the simplest way is to use reference tags:
- Sentence needing citation.<ref>Author. Date. Title. Publisher. Link if relevant.</ref>
- You can use any citation style, as long as it's consistent and gives enough information to locate the source.
- You might also want to check out the shortened guide to referencing and (optional) citation templates, which automatically formats your references in Wikipedia's citation styles (Citation style 1, Citation style 2). There are different templates for different types of sources, such as books, journals, AV media, news, and websites. An example:
- Sentence needing citation.<ref>{{cite book|author=Name|date=2024|title=Title|publisher=Publisher}}</ref>
- How it looks:[1][2]

Hello, how are you? I previously added a new page for Carl Runefelt, a crypto analyst and investor. That page was deleted because I didn't give the right references. I was hoping if you could help with it this time? --T.rabia (talk) 05:58, 4 October 2024 (UTC)
