Hi! I'm SQL from the English Wikipedia. It's easiest to either e-mail me or, contact me on my enwiki talkpage if you need to get ahold of me. SQL 05:37, 28 August 2008 (UTC)

Reflist
editI understand you were trying to put in a reflist on pages that had references, but no list. But just to let you know - all those pages now need a cleanup tag since the use of a reflist is not standard practice for WQ pages. Instead, sources of quotes are listed beneath the quote. Just wanted to let you know in case you have others you wanted to add it to. ~ UDScott 12:55, 28 August 2008 (UTC)
- Hmm, I didn't realize that, I was working from Wikiquote:Citing_sources#What_to_call_the_References_section_when_using_footnotes. I can drop some cleanup tags, if you like, no problem (or, simply mass-revert myself). SQL 13:06, 28 August 2008 (UTC)
- Hi. SQL mentioned he epic failed, so I came to help him cleanup, but I don't see what the issue is. Can you please clarify so I know exactly what is to be corrected? The articles look correct to me. Jennavecia 13:19, 28 August 2008 (UTC)
- I started to add cleanup tags to the ones you had worked on, but had to leave for a bit. You may refer to this conversation that may help: Wikiquote:Village_pump#Reflist, but the accepted practice here is to not use reflists on pages in WQ. ~ UDScott 15:39, 28 August 2008 (UTC)
