Not 'minor'

See

WP:MINOR for what should and should not be designated as minor edits. David notMD (talk) 21:56, 10 April 2022 (UTC)[reply

Sorry for marking all my edits as minor. Jay852 (talk) 22:00, 10 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Teahouse wrong answer

"It needs to be approved first, which usually takes 4 months or longer." This is wrong. Yes, there is a backlog of ~3,000 drafts at Articles for Creation, but the system is not a queue. Reviewers select what they want to review next. Thus, could be hours, days, weeks or (sadly) months. David notMD (talk) 01:09, 11 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

While there is no strict rule for minimum experience needed before answering queries at Teahouse, a good guide would be 3-6 months and more than 500 article edits first. David notMD (talk) 01:11, 11 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Understood. Jay852 (talk) 01:18, 11 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

References

References are embedded in the text of the article, following the facts being supported. The software automatically inserts a superscripted number at that place and puts the references, numbered, under References. Help:Referencing for beginners will help.

Okay, i was simply trying to just add the small arrows. Jay852 (talk) 01:23, 11 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The 'small arrows' are added automatically when you create a proper reference, placed after the text it supports. I agree with the TOOSOON comment. The draft will stay a draft for six months before being deleted for inactivity (you get a warning at five months). Perhaps by then there will be published reviews to cite. Meanwhile, you could hone your skills by improving articles about other games in the franchise. David notMD (talk) 14:03, 11 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, but when the pre- alpha test comes out can i add a reference from a reliable and independent source that was in the test. Jay852 (talk) 15:48, 11 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
