Hello, Kylecholmes! Having an article declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing.

See you there! DGG ( talk ) 02:43, 8 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I live in Belfast and the reason why this should be a separate article is that these are two completely different buildings with the same name. To add this info to the Belfast Castle article would be confusing for the reader as the modern Belfast Castle was built in a completely different place in the 1870s.

Disambiguation link notification for March 17

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited History of Belfast, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Hugh Montgomery (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Episodes

Looking at the history, it doesn't seem like you were or not for the majority of the reference. There is the edit where the references were amalgamated. There were a couple of instances where you'd said episode 39, but it didn't appear as you were using {{cite radio}} and episode isn't a valid field for that template. You need to use {{cite episode}}, sadly I can't be much help in splitting the references as I don't know which footnote applies to which episode. Any questions please ask though. ~~

It dawned on me to cite the episode but I only got as far as you can see in the history. Once I started, my plan was to retroactivity cite the earlier episodes. However, once they became amalgamated I couldn't update the episode numbers and so just went forward Kylecholmes (talk) 21:59, 24 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

To make life simpler for you, you can copy/paste these.

<ref name="episode1">{{cite episode| series=A Short History of Ireland| author=Dr. Jonathan Bardon| publisher=BBC Audio| year=2006| number=1}}</ref>

Use that for the first time you cite a particular episode, and obviously update the "1" in the reference name and the number field to match the episode you're using.

<ref name="episode1"/>

For any subsequent use of the same episode, you can use that shorter version, which will amalgamate duplicate footnotes. Hope that helps. FDW777 (talk) 22:05, 24 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the help. Also, the Audiobook is presented in 48 chapters. Could I use that reference system since its more concise? Kylecholmes (talk) 22:20, 24 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Whatever is easiest for you, if you're using the Audiobook version it's best if you make that clear though, since the episode numbers will obviously differ from the original 120 BBC episodes. FDW777 (talk) 22:25, 24 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your help. One last question, his do you cite an Audio book? Kylecholmes (talk) 22:31, 24 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I've never done it myself, but it looks like you would use {{Cite AV media}}, so <ref>{{cite AV media |people= |date= |title= |trans-title= |medium= |language= |url= |access-date= |archive-url= |archive-date= |format= |time= |location= |publisher= |id= |isbn= |oclc= |quote= |ref= }}</ref>, deleting any fields you don't need.

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from History of Belfast into Timeline of Belfast history. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 22:22, 10 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
