ImpactStory

edit

Hi Graham, I'm watching this page so if you want to create an article about ImpactStory you can ask me questions about it here :) - Lawsonstu (talk) 08:13, 1 January 2014 (UTC)Reply

Thanks Stuart.
Still getting used to creating a page from scratch. Have started am Impactstory page via sandbox. Have tried to include as many internal wiki links as possible but need to figure out how to add external references properly.
I've added a References section, and added the {{reflist}} template underneath it. Now anything that you place within <ref></ref> tags will automatically appear in that section. - Lawsonstu (talk) 13:29, 1 January 2014 (UTC)Reply

OK, that's looking not bad for starters. Appreciate your assistance. How do you move a page out of sandbox and onto Wikipedia itself ? AHA - I've sussed that out and have submitted it for review...

Am reviewing it myself. It's been moved to here: Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/ImpactStory, so your sandbox is blank again. - Lawsonstu (talk) 20:59, 1 January 2014 (UTC)Reply

The article is live! I had to remove quite a lot of the copy because it was too close (or copied from) their website, making it not neutral enough for a Wikipedia article. I also added a couple of references from websites not related to the project. - Lawsonstu (talk) 21:47, 1 January 2014 (UTC)Reply

Thanks again.

Thanks for making this article. I am a fan of this tool. Blue Rasberry (talk) 17:21, 7 January 2014 (UTC)Reply
