Censorship in Auschwitz

Hi @Theresa Xu: How are you? I reviewed the article your wrote. It a great bit of work. Excellent really although the citations are a bit out of sorts. Take a look at WP:SFN which may help. They would be ideal for you. WP:REFB may be handy. You can put an isbn or a doi or a url into the cite book template in the editing window and it will populate the dialog for you. Your then left with a reference like <ref>{{...}}</ref><nowiki>. When you remove the ref tags from the your left with a raw citation. The can be used in the bibliography section. If you use the sfn tags, and a biblio section with a <nowiki>{{refbegin|30em}} and a {{refend}} when you click on the sfn it takes you to the individual citation. Its quite nice and a very easy way of referencing. Also please take a look at [1]. Its a world catalogue of books. We generally don't link to the publishers page. Its a site that helps you create the citation. I hope that helps. scope_creep^Talk 08:35, 21 August 2023 (UTC)
