Nobel Prize References
Hey, On the FAC page of Nobel Prize you proposed that I should try to get a person that is experienced with referencing to do some job on the page. You don't happen to have time for that? --Esuzu (talk • contribs) 19:35, 2 March 2010 (UTC)
- Hi, I have limited Wikitime right now, so I cannot help you with the individual references. A few hints, though: try to comply with The most reliable sources are usually peer-reviewed journals; books published by university presses; university-level textbooks; magazines, journals, and books published by respected publishing houses; and mainstream newspapers. Electronic media may also be used, subject to the same criteria. Once you have eliminated (or, better, replaced) questionable references, the refs need a consistent formatting for an FA level article. This is described in the Manual of style. Another good idea is to look at successful FA candidates. I was recently reviewing Film noir, which is very good in this respect. However, of course, every topic has its particularities.
- Once you have achieved some progress, ping me and I can check back with the article. Jakob.scholbach (talk) 11:57, 3 March 2010 (UTC)
- Hey again! I've entirely re-referenced all that I can see needs re-referencing on the page now! Found a couple of good books and used them. If you have time I'd be happy if you could check it again. I'm working on the last image issues and then it is off to FA again :) --Esuzu (talk • contribs) 19:36, 29 March 2010 (UTC)
