Thanks for the welcome. I have done some anonymous edits. Not many, mostly minor. And I annually donate $. I like Wikipedia.

I created an account to do major additions to jazz singer Rebecca Kilgore's article, at her widower's request.

I'm off to the Teahouse to query about referencing album liner notes in footnotes. Rdog2010 (talk) 00:52, 13 January 2026 (UTC)

Hello Rdog2010! The thread you created at the Teahouse, Footnotes referencing album liner notes, has been archived because there was no discussion for a few days. You can still read the archived discussion. If you have follow-up questions, please create a new thread. See also the help page about the archival process.

Hi. Here's the reply I gave on my talk page:

The first edit I made added more information than just "she died" - you need as much as possible in a short sentence, including date of death, place of death and age if possible. The edit also added the very important source of the death information - it's crucial that you add a citation for almost every fact you introduce into an article, in other words, prove it is a correct addition by linking to the article you got the information from.

The second edit introduced what is called a reference naming format, whereby you can name the first reference source so that you don't need to repeat the whole thing. If you look closer you will see that's what I've done.

In closing I just want to reassure you that you haven't made mistakes of any kind as such - you have just omitted to add important details to back up your edits. Keep doing the good work and learning. Thanks. Ref ^(chew)(do) 23:55, 4 February 2026 (UTC)
