Can you add the article 2017 Westminster attack to the list? Supreme Dragon (talk) 15:04, 23 March 2017 (UTC)
- Supreme Dragon, to what list? This is the page to request an editnotice is added to the article so that editors will receive a cautionary notice while editing. Nothing to do with any lists. Cabayi (talk) 15:25, 23 March 2017 (UTC)

I would like to have the following notice added to 2017 Westminster attack, to help other editors comply with WP:VERIFY:
- When referencing to live threads from newspaper websites, please link to the specific element of the thread. For The Guardian's live threads (e.g. this one), click on the timestamp next to the element, and then copy the URL. For the BBC's one (e.g. this one), click on the "Share" button in the bottom of the specific element you want to reference, click on "Twitter" (it won't tweet unless you confirm) and copy the URL given. This is to make verification possible or easier for readers.
This is justified by how often editors are referencing the live threads without mentioning the timestamp, title, or URL, of specific elements. Thanks. --BurritoBazooka Talk Contribs 16:57, 24 March 2017 (UTC) BurritoBazooka Talk Contribs 16:57, 24 March 2017 (UTC)
Not done: please establish a consensus for this alteration before using the {{edit template-protected}}template. My recommendation is that you ask at Talk:2017 Westminster attack whether an edit notice is necessary. Izno (talk) 17:03, 24 March 2017 (UTC)
