Merge and Redirect to WP:INTREF

It looks as though this page is beginning to get out of date. The pages Help:Introduction to referencing with VisualEditor and Help:Introduction to referencing with Wiki Markup contain more up to date info on the current editing interface. I suggest merging in any information from this page that is missing from those pages and redirecting to reduce the number of pages in need of maintenance.

I support this. Most of the information on this page is way too technical and should be cut. Just send editors to the better page. Sdkb (talk) 06:29, 19 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

citing sources should be easier, by a dedicated text input field

When I click on the edit tab at the top of the page to add to an article and then click on "publish changes" to update the page a "summarise your edit" box pops up. I think there should be an extra text input field for me to cite the source of my content. The current system of tags Cite error: There are <ref> tags on this page without content in them (see the help page). doesn't encourage me as it's too fiddly, do those tags go in the article?

@Adrian816: this is the talk page for discussing improvements to the page Help:Referencing for beginners. I think that you are looking for the Help desk. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 21:18, 10 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
