Thank you for correcting the Powers Boothe article. I was going to revert it myself, but I figured I'd discuss it in the Talk page. I'm glad someone did it, though. DTXBrian (talk) 02:24, 15 May 2017 (UTC)[]

HI WWGB, I'm a researcher at Sydney Uni and would like to contact you. I'm not sure how best to do this and hoping this message somehow reaches you....Doctor 17. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Doctor 17 (talk • contribs) 08:45, 18 April 2017 (UTC)[]
I was hoping to add references but I'm not sure how to go about it. Firstly, I'm not sure what count as valid sources, and whether lesser sources can be used if you can't find a good one.
I also don't understand the 'ref' script. I am old and very tech unsavvy, and I just see a mess of symbols when I look at that. And the help pages don't help me because I don't understand the language used. There seems to be no help written in plain English.
Is it a problem if I continue to add unsourced deaths, and leave it for someone else to make it their project to source them? After all, I am taking these straight from the individuals' Wikipedia pages, which include their death dates. Braintic (talk) 06:24, 6 March 2024 (UTC)[]
@Braintic: Sorry for the delay in replying. Using the simple ref format of these pages, it is easy to add a reference to every death.
The standard format is <ref>[web address of source <space> headline of source]</ref>
For example, Danilo Atienza (died December 1, 1989) has this source in his article: [4]
We add the following to the end of his death entry: <ref>[https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1989-12-11-mn-137-story.html Manila Mourns, Pauses to Reflect : Philippines: ‘Many of us came close to Judgment Day,’ a cleric reminds parishioners in posh Makati district.]</ref>
Try adding a few yourself. It's not hard to do.
It's best you add the reference together with the death entry, otherwise a zealous editor may come along and delete your work as unsourced.

Hi WWGB! Sorry to bother you, but I saw you reverted my edit on "Deaths in November 2019" for ""by consensus, all Deaths in X pages use simple cites". I'm wondering if you have a link to this consensus, please? I tried to look it up but couldn't find it. Thank you! HeyElliott (talk) 20:39, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[]
