Hello! Just wanted to flag that I made a slight change to two of your edits, both concerning Elizabeth Holmes's appeal. There were two appeals on the table—the first being the on-the-merits appeal and the second relating to the district-court judge's decision not to let Holmes remain free while that first appeal was resolved. Only the second appeal was rejected—as your source says: "Disgraced Theranos CEO Elizabeth Holmes appears to be soon bound for prison after an appeals court Tuesday rejected her bid to remain free while she tries to overturn her conviction in a blood-testing hoax that brought her fleeting fame and fortune." I thought that was worth clarifying, hence my edits :) -- Jerome Frank Disciple 13:14, 17 May 2023 (UTC) reply

Thank you for contributing to the backlog drive.

I reviewed [ these edits] that you made to article Avtonom Golovin, and noticed that you added two links to Wikisource entries and tagged the edit with WP:FEB24. There are two problems.

1. While Wikisource may be a great way to FIND reliable sources, it isMAY not ITSELF be a reliable source (see WP:RS) for Wikipedia; see WP:RSE and in particular this section.
2. The goal of the backlog drive is to add inline citations (see WP:INLINECITE), and while any citations and links to sister projects are welcome, only the first addition of one or more inline citation may be tagged with WP:FEB24.

I have therefore moved your links to Wikisource as {{ Wikisourcelang-inline}} into an External links section (as per WP:MOSSIS). I also noticed that there was already a prior link to a reliable source in the article, but not properly formatted as a citation and not used as an inline citation either, so I put it into a {{ cite journal}} and moved it into a General references section.

I hope this doesn’t annoy you too much, and doesn’t put you off contributing. Betterkeks ( talk) 12:01, 23 February 2024 (UTC) reply

Hello @ Betterkeks. I think there is a misunderstanding. Wikisource is not the source, the sources are the Russian Biographical Dictionary and the Brockhaus and Efron Encyclopedic Dictionary, both are dictionaries known to be useful sources about the history of Russia. Wikipedia's policy is that encyclopedias may be cited. WP:TERTIARY They are both hosted on Wikisource, which is why I added the Wikisource URL, as it is convenient for those who want to check the source. Jaguarnik ( talk) 15:22, 23 February 2024 (UTC) reply

Hi Jaguarnik, I’ve been doing more reading and it seems Wikisource needs to be assessed on a case-by-case basis, contrary in particular to this section. Furthermore, there is even template {{ cite wikisource}} that COULD be used to add inline citations that use Wikisource! (Note self-corrections above.)

Still, I notice that both Russian Biographical Dictionary and Brockhaus and Efron Encyclopedic Dictionary have externals links. I am curious why we would not use these instead of Wikisource?

(I also think this section needs to be updated to state clearly that Wikisource data may be sourced IF reliable, and how in practice that reliability may be established.) Betterkeks ( talk) 20:05, 23 February 2024 (UTC) reply

Hello @ Betterkeks, I honestly wasn't aware of the external links of RBC and B&E dictionaries; I think those links can also be used, I just used Wikisource as it was more convenient. I also wasn't aware of the cite wikisource template, thank you for that!

I would go back if possible and put inline citations for the information in Avtonom Golovin and Ivan Mikhailovich Viskovatyi, but I am not sure how to put inline citations without simply making the same citation over and over again, as most of the information in those two articles are contained in the encyclopedic entries. Jaguarnik ( talk) 21:12, 23 February 2024 (UTC) reply

Personally, I would use the external links with a {{ cite book}} or {{ cite encyclopedia}} for inline citations. But I would also include links to Wikisource in the External links section, using {{ Wikisourcelang-inline}}. Using {{ cite wikisource}} isn’t common (it is only used on approximately 5,800 pages), and establishing reliability for Wikisource seems like an unsolved problem, at least to me ... at the moment.

Referencing the same citation from multiple places is done by giving the <ref>...</ref> a name such as pol18 (see WP:NAMEDREFS); that is, <ref name="pol18">...</ref>. Have a look at article Vic Schwall as an example; the inline citation <ref name="pfr">{{cite web ... }}</ref> is also re-used elsewhere as <ref name="pfr" />. To refer to specific pages, you could do this: <ref name="pfr" />{{rp|2, 5–9, 11}}.

If you want to keep the main text light by keeping all the citation definitions in a single place outside of main text, you can use list-defined references ( WP:LDR). An example is article Digital timing diagram, where <ref name="ptd24" /> is used twice.

Alternatively, you could use shortened footnotes ( WP:SRF), which seems to be the "system" preferred by contributors in humanities.

I tried coming up with citations, but as I can’t read Russian, the below is as far as I got (using both {{ cite book}} and {{ cite encyclopedia}} as examples). Note that for the {{ cite encyclopedia}} I left it spaced it out for the moment while completing it.
