Preview and Minor Edits
@Dillbug: I see you’re doing your edits on this — good work. Before you save, be sure to preview — this will save a lot of database space if you fix typos, etc. before saving. Also, most of your edits are minor, so you should select "This is a minor edit" under the summary. This is important. Thanks. —Grlucas (talk) 22:01, 3 April 2019 (UTC)
- @Grlucas: I am trying to add my citations but the system keeps logging me out, even when I click on the box that says keep me logged in. Please take a look at what I have cited so far and let me know if I am citing correctly. I will note from now own these are minor edits.--Dillbug (talk) 23:03, 3 April 2019 (UTC)
- @Dillbug: That's odd. You might try another browser. Which one are you using? —Grlucas (talk) 00:25, 4 April 2019 (UTC)
- @Dillbug: There are errors throughout, I'm afraid. Look at how I did things at the beginning. Be sure to preview before saving. The last part of the essay is strewn with footnote typos: mostly forgetting one } at the end of the footnote. Footnotes always go after punctuation. —Grlucas (talk) 00:31, 4 April 2019 (UTC)
@Grlucas: I think I have made the corrections needed on the citations. Please review one more time.--Dillbug (talk) 18:22, 4 April 2019 (UTC)
- @Dillbug: Getting better. I know this can be meticulous at times, but it's worth doing correctly. The works cited are still incomplete (none, other than the ones I changed are using the templates) and there's a weird Mailer citation that doesn't go to anything. Should I be AAD? If so, it needs to be added, and it's just 1965. A bit more work yet, but you're making great progress. —Grlucas (talk) 20:58, 4 April 2019 (UTC)
- Grlucas I don't understand what you mean by none of the citations are using templates, nor can I find where the weird Mailer citation is? Also, what do you mean by 'Should I be AAD? If so, it needs to be added, and it's just 1965.'--Dillbug (talk) 17:40, 6 April 2019 (UTC)
@Grlucas: Dr. Lucas, I am extremely frustrated right now. Everything I try to accomplish is wrong. I am really having difficulty with the citation editing. Also, why can I no longer switch to visual editor?--Dillbug (talk) 17:08, 6 April 2019 (UTC)
