Sources[edit]
At the bottom of the article creation page there is a link to insert the sources template. What you then do is fill out the bits between = and | e.g
*{{source|url=Where you get it from' |title=The exact title of the article |author=Who wrote the original article (If known, some of our sources dont use this so leave it blank in that case |pub=Who published the article |date=The date the article was written in Month Day, Year format (e.g. February 22, 2006)}}
If you need any assistance feel free to use my talk page - Cartman02au (Talk)(AU Portal) 01:57, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
