how many reference address would be enough?


where would i insert citation appropriately in an article? 41.190.12.252 (talk) 05:53, 2 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, and welcome to the Help Desk. There's no magic number of references required, but generally at least a few is a good idea. The quality of the references is often more important than their quantity. We're looking for solidly reliable, independent sources that offer significant coverage of the subject. Facebook, Twitter and blogs are primary/user-generated sources that don't offer an independent look at the subject, so they aren't the kinds of references we're looking for.
To learn how to put your citations into an article, check out WP:REFB. It explains how to wrap your references in <ref> tags and how you can put them in the body of the text so that they appear as footnotes.
Finally, are there any reliable secondary sources indicating that Biafran education is referred to as "Biafranedu"? Quoting from WP:NOTNEO, "Neologisms that are in wide use but for which there are no treatments in secondary sources are not yet ready for use and coverage in Wikipedia". So you will need to find some good-quality sources showing that the term "Biafranedu" is in use. Thanks, and let us know if you have further questions! /wia /tlk 06:02, 2 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Johnnygems: Hi, and welcome to the Help Desk. You'll want to start by reading WP:REFB, which explains how to make footnote-style references. Basically you put the content of your reference inside special tags like this: <ref>Reference material goes here.</ref>.
I'll also note that you will want to find more reliable, independent (third-party) sources that discuss Gemini in significant detail. The sources you have currently appear to be primary sources like YouTube and the musician's website, which are generally not considered reliable sources. You should also take a look at Wikipedia's conflict of interest policy, as it is relevant here. Thanks, /wia /tlk 07:31, 2 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

HI, I've been trying to get a piece about an academic division of UCL published, but it keeps coming back as not having enough citations. I've had several academics read through it who all feel it is fully supported, please can you help The piece I'm working on is about Divisions of Psychology and Language Sciences It is supported by the following references "UCL - London's Global University". UCL. Retrieved 2015-11-27. "Home : REF 2014". www.ref.ac.uk. Retrieved 2015-10-21. Hearnshaw, LS (1964). A Short History of British Psychology. London: Methuen. "RAE 2008". www.rae.ac.uk.

  This page is for questions about the Articles for creation process. Please consider asking this question at the Wikipedia:Reference desk.

The article I created "AKA Ladies Night" was deleted without warning and I got no notice of it. I have search in the Deletion Log, but failed to find it or a reason for why it was deleted. I would really like to know why it was deleted.SpiritedMichelle (talk) 18:58, 2 December 2015 (UTC) SpiritedMichelle (talk) 18:58, 2 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Please ask Gbawden who redirected it to Jessica Jones (TV series) Fiddle Faddle 21:37, 2 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi

My article was rejected as it was not notable.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Currency_UK_Ltd

I followed the same format as:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moneycorp https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CommexFX https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Currenex

However some of these had even less notability. Any idea how I can fix this?

Thank you.

I hope the comment I have left on the draft just now adds some illumination on the reason it has been pushed back to you. Fiddle Faddle 21:23, 2 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
