September 2016

Hello, I'm MrX. I noticed that you made a change to an article, 2016 Cascade Mall shooting, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. I also wanted to mention that we are not allowed to do original research. Please read WP:OR to understand why. Feel free to ask any questions you may have and I will try to answer them. - Mr X 00:47, 25 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

All information is accurate but I see that in Wikipedia, it is not required to have a footnote for every sentence. Thank you. Call the police if you know or are the shooter. Help is possible for you. Sally882 (talk) 00:52, 25 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Citation formats

Hi. Sorry if we got off on the wrong foot at Oak Harbor High School (Washington); just remember it's very important to cite sources correctly. The "see cascade mall shooting article for many citations" footnote isn't a good way to cite sources because articles can change over time and that citation may not be in the article in the future, and it does not refer to any specific source. I've gone ahead and fixed the citation, but I figure some further explanation on citations in Wikipedia is necessary, seeing as you've had similar trouble on other articles. Typically, it's preferred you give the url, date, author, title, work, and date you accessed a publication to ensure future readers can find the material in question; you can simply provide the url, but it may break when a site updates its systems and links to old pages change, leaving the material inaccessible. There is a helpful tutorial at Help:Referencing for beginners#Inserting a reference which shows you how to format citations appropriately for Wikipedia; just reply if you need help. —^0xF₈E₈ (talk) 22:59, 27 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
