Named references edit

Hi Joao, I can't find it now but I am certain that somewhere there is a guidance that says that named references of the style <ref name =":0"> are nowadays considered poor practice. I know we all follow existing examples and it looks like you have found an old one.

The preference now is to use reasonably meaningful names, so that other editors can read the raw text and see fairly easily which reference is which. If it is a long article, then it needs to anticipate the need for uniquenes. A short article might use <ref name = NYTimes> but a longer one would need <ref name = NYT033020> (quotes are only needed if the name contains a space or other special character). --Red King (talk) 21:50, 30 March 2020 (UTC)Reply

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution edit

  Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from European Union law into Draft:Freedom of Establishment and Freedom to Provide Services in the European Union. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. If you are the sole author of the prose that was copied, attribution is not required. — Diannaa (talk) 14:47, 28 June 2020 (UTC)Reply
