Liverpool and citation
Hi i noticed your additions with adding information on this article. The referencing on wikipedia is one of the more difficult parts of editing. First you can take look at my revision of what you added link(I added a couple of links in the first part too but ignore that for now). Your first mistake was you split up the reference for the previous sentence note the '''<ref>{{cite''' before your entry. Make sure you always write after the reference finishes: with <ref/>.
Now, for example you put (Liverpool Daily Post 2004) at the end. That's great stuff because i could find what you were referring to, but in future try this:
<ref> {{cite web |title= |url= |accessdate=2008-05-20}} </ref>
Copy and paste the above code into an article then just copy the website address you want from the internet bar (when looking at that page) and paste it in the url section and give it an appropriate title (see my Liverpool changes for an example). Also see WP:Citation for the whole rundown if you need more advice. Any problems and feel free it ask me on my talk page.
In all seriousness thanks for the additions, the article needs much work and you've made it better. The majority of changes to the page just seem to be deleting everything and putting "Scousers are all dickheads" or "LFC forever"! Hope you can improve things in the future too!

Just looking through your contributions and i see you copied the text from here for the wikipedia article. Normally this is bad practice, if you aren't the person who wrote the original then this could be copyright violation. However, you are free to summarise and adapt what the text tells you and put it in your own words. If you want to use wikipedia more often then doing this might be a good exercise in learning about how wikipedia works. Thanks. Sillyfolkboy ( talk) 01:17, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
