before the question. Again, welcome! Shearonink (talk) 23:07, 4 October 2012 (UTC)- While editing any article or a wikipage, on the top of the edit window you will see a toolbar which says "cite". Click on it
- Then click on "templates",
- Choose the most appropriate template and fill as many details as you can. This will add a well formatted reference that would be helpful in case the website link (web URL) becomes inactive (dead/link rot) after some time.
- Click on Preview.
- Then if the reference is how you want it, click on Insert.
- And then Preview the page and Save as usual.
You can read more about it on Help:Edit toolbar or see this video File:RefTools.ogv. Hope this helps, Shearonink (talk) 00:50, 5 October 2012 (UTC)

Google Graph and L'Wren Scott's birthdate
Under her information on GG, there's a button to click where you can add the correct date. It only requires a source. I can do it for you, when I'm on a better device. — Wyliepedia 03:07, 21 March 2014 (UTC)
Coolio CAWylie - Super good to know. Thank you! Victoriasays (talk) 03:27, 21 March 2014 (UTC)
Update: I added the source link and correct date via 'feedback'. Gracias again! Victoriasays (talk) 03:34, 21 March 2014 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for February 19
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited L'Wren Scott, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Pretty Polly. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
Please do not add commentary, your own point of view, or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles, as you did to Ayurveda. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. Thank you.
Please also note that the article and the topic of what is and is not pseudoscience fall under
]- Not only that, 1RR is enforced at that page - so this is already blockable misbehaviour. ]
Not only did I not add my own point of view, I cited my edit. I did not contribute to blockable misbehaviour in any way, shape or form. Kindly explain 'precisely' of what you speak. (Victoriasays (talk) 19:29, 9 September 2017 (UTC))
- Read the notice at the top of the page when you edit it. By repeatedly making the same edit you are risking a block. You are warned. ]
What on Earth are you talking about? I have not done anything repeatedly. Not even twice. Again, explain 'precisely' of what you speak because I have done nothing you have mentioned and I find your messages approaching harassment. (Victoriasays (talk) 18:36, 10 September 2017 (UTC))
- On 3 September, you made two attempts to remove the "pseudoscience" material. Doing in different ways won't exempt you. ]
I actually spoke to some very even-tempered, non-judgemental admins in the KiwiIRC today that graciously — and with a normal, cordial conversational tone — pointed that out to me. I genuinely had no idea. I am traveling and there must have been a slow-connection error which created the action twice. So, my mistake. Although, my action of making a mistake doesn't make anyone else exempt from being respectful. Speaking of doing things in different ways, there were many other ways you could have expressed your concerns, other than as rudely as you have. I hope to never have an exchange with you again. (Victoriasays (talk) 02:21, 11 September 2017 (UTC))
- You can have an exchange with me instead then.
- you made this edit on the third of september and left the following edit summary: (Removed citations claiming 'pseudoscience' that offered no actual citation that Ayurveda is pseudoscience. Added actual fact from previously cited source.). In this edit you removed several lines of text which were cited using reliable sources. You were reverted. Edaham (talk) 08:19, 11 September 2017 (UTC)
- you made this completely different edit a few minutes after you were reverted. and left this edit summary, Classification and efficacy: Updated to reflect tangible growing popularity. In this edit you made sweeping changes to the section Classification and efficacy, related to and expanding on the changes you made, which had previously been reverted - in spite of the 1-revert policy on this page and without discussing your changes with anyone on the talk page.
- Question: Is it respectful to turn up and start hacking apart the work of your colleagues without consulting them first and then to do it again when they tidy up after you the first time? I really feel like some people turn up here and see themselves not as part of a group of editorial staff, but as a unilaterally acting member of a have-your-say style bulletin board. Your editing practice wouldn't work in any work place. I'm not sure how you expect it to contribute to this project. Edaham (talk) 08:19, 11 September 2017 (UTC)
You're unnecessarily beating a dead horse. I already apologized for my mistake. My contributions to Wikipedia have all been productive and useful. Belaboring in a harassing tone is counterproductive and I will take no further part. (Victoriasays (talk) 17:46, 13 September 2017 (UTC))
