In the example above there are URL's provided with each claim statement, but these URL's have not been placed using Citation Style 1, which is the style predominantly used by the Blackstone Group article. Additionally, although references have been provided following each request, the ref tags which accompany the text have not been placed. [b] Using the correct style and the correct positioning of the ref tags, the WikiFormatted text would resemble the following:
In the example above the references have been formatted according to Citation Style 1, which shows the author, the source's name, date, etc. Also, the ref tags are placed in the exact location where the text which they reference resides. As Wikipedia is a volunteer project, edit requests such yours are generally expected to have this formatting done before the request is submitted for review. [c] |
