question
Hi! I'm really new to making pages. I'm running the Women in Antarctic Science wikibomb and am busy making pages today (sorry if I am making lots of mistakes!). I'm keen to know how I go about using a reference like these ones below. I am not sure how to add in multiple authors..... Bell, R. E. & J. Laird, Women, Work and the Academy, EOS, 86(30) Paper No. 2005ES001073, 2005
Thanks! Janstrugnell (talk) 04:19, 4 June 2016 (UTC)
- Hi Janstrugnell! Which page are you working on? It'll be easier to show you how if I mark it up for you on the page. And don't worry about making mistakes! It's all part of the game. We're here to help. :) Megalibrarygirl (talk) 18:07, 4 June 2016 (UTC)
- Thanks for this and thanks for being so kind. I think I've figured this out now. I've just uploaded 14 pages about Antarctic female researchers. I'll see how they go in the review process and if they go okay then I'll try to upload some more! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Janstrugnell (talk • contribs) 09:18, 6 June 2016 (UTC)
