== Re: Removal of maintenance templates ==


You still did not address the raised issues when you removed the one year old template. Even if it is almost one year since that template had been placed, removing it without a valid reason can still be considered vandalism.
A lot of those "upcoming shows" are poorly sourced and sometimes uses blogs and YouTube videos as primary sources. Per [[WP:SPS]] and [[WP:YOUTUBE]], YouTube links and blogs are considered invalid primary sources since anyone can upload/create their own blog and claim it is "officially" from ABS-CBN. Also, I have restored the maintenance templates from the GMA Network article for the same reason. [[Special:Contributions/Jefmolina|someone]] removed the templates last week also without addressing the same issues. -[[User:WayKurat|WayKurat]] ([[User talk:WayKurat|talk]]) 14:23, 5 November 2011 (UTC)

==Some tips to help you out!==
Hi {{BASEPAGENAME}}, I thought I'd drop a few notes on your talk page with some help on writing articles :o)

First of all, it may be best for you to do a bit of reading, starting with the [[WP:MOS|Wikipedia manual of style]], which will give you a lot of information about how Wikipedia prefers its articles to be written. It's not as hard to follow as it might look; quite a bit of the information there probably won't be vital for you at first.

Second, I recommend you make a user sandbox - which is just an area you can use to practise in, and to make notes in, and to get things ready in. If you click this red link: [[user:{{BASEPAGENAME}}/Sandbox]], that will let you create that page (it gives you an edit window to start work in). Anything, anywhere, on the help and information pages which gives you an example, try it out in your sandbox until you're familiar with it.

For your article, the next thing you want to do is start collecting as much information as you can about it. Google searches (particularly in Books and Scholar) will be your best friend for this! Once you've found the information, the next most important thing is to start writing up each fact ''in your own words'' (very important, this), and make a note at the same time of ''exactly'' where that information came from. Build in the references as you go along; I'm going to copy in, down below this, a whole heap of help on doing references, which was produced by one of our best teachers ([[User:Chzz|Chzz]]).

Here's another place that you'll find incredibly useful - [[WP:CITEQR|citation templates]] which you can copy and paste into your sandbox, between <nowiki><ref></ref></nowiki> tags; you just fill in the blanks from your sources into the template, and you'll end up with nicely formatted [[WP:INCITE|inline citations]] :o) It all helps. Remember to add a references section to your sandbox (make a new line, and put <nowiki>==References==</nowiki> on it, and type <nowiki>{{reflist}}</nowiki> on the next line, so that you can see how your citations look as you do them. Remember to save your page often! You don't want to lose your work.

Hopefully this will give you a good start and make life easier for you.

One last thing to keep as a motto: "It's better to write one good, well-referenced, nicely-presented article than it is to create fifty unreferenced one-line stubs!" [[User:ThatPeskyCommoner| <span style="color:#003300; font-family: cursive;">'''Pesky'''</span>]] ([[User talk:ThatPeskyCommoner|<span style="color:#336600;">talk</span>]] …[[Special:Contributions/ThatPeskyCommoner|''stalk!'']]) 12:40, 13 November 2011 (UTC)
==How references work==

=== Simple references ===

These require two parts;

:a)
<pre>
Chzz is 98 years old.<ref> "The book of Chzz", Aardvark Books, 2009. </ref>

He likes tea. <ref> [http://www.nicecupofteaandasitdown.com Tea website] </ref>
</pre>

:b) A section called "References" with the special code "<nowiki>{{reflist}}</nowiki>";
<pre>
== References ==
{{reflist}}
</pre>

(an existing article is likely to already have one of these sections)

To see the result of that, please look at [[user:chzz/demo/simpleref]]. Edit it, and check the code; perhaps make a test page of your own, such as [[user:{{BASEPAGENAME}}/reftest]] and try it out.

=== Named references ===

<pre>
Chzz was born in 1837. <ref name=MyBook>
"The book of Chzz", Aardvark Books, 2009.
</ref>

Chzz lives in Footown.<ref name=MyBook/>

</pre>

Note that the second usage has a <nowiki>/</nowiki> (and no closing ref tag). This needs a reference section as above; please see [[user:chzz/demo/namedref]] to see the result.

=== Citation templates ===

You can put anything you like between <nowiki><ref> and </ref></nowiki>, but using citation templates makes for a neat, consistent look;

<pre>
Chzz has 37 Olympic medals. <ref> {{Citation
| last = Smith
| first = John
| title = Olympic medal winners of the 20th century
| publication-date = 2001
| publisher = [[Cambridge University Press]]
| page = 125
| isbn = 0-521-37169-4
}}
</ref>
</pre>

Please see [[user:chzz/demo/citeref]] to see the result.

For more help and tips on that subject, see [[user:chzz/help/refs]].
==Here's a little bit of magic which can save you an awful lot of time and effort!==

You might want to consider using [[WP:REFLINKS|this tool]] - (tools:~dispenser/cgi-bin/webreflinks.py) - it makes your life a whole heap easier, by filling in complete [[WP:CITEQR|citation templates]] for your links. All you do is install the script on [[Special:MyPage/common.js]], or or [[Special:MyPage/vector.js]], then paste the bare url (without <nowiki>[...]</nowiki> brackets) between your <nowiki><ref></ref></nowiki> tabs, and you'll find a clickable link called Reflinks in your toolbox section of the page (probably in the left hand column). Then click that tool. It does all the rest of the work (provided that you remember to save the page! It doesn't work for everything (particularly often not for pdf documents), but for pretty much anything ending in "htm" or "html" (and with a title) it will do really, really well all by itself. For those it can't do by itself, it gives you a pull-down (or up) menu of templates to choose from, which you can then fill in manually. Often the problem is "No title found" - sometimes the title is obvious (especially if it's a pdf), bit, if not, just open the page yourself and choose something appropriate if there's not already a clear title there.

The article DYXZ-TV has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Unreferenced, and I can't find any mentions in Google News or Google Books

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. — Mr. Stradivarius 05:06, 22 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
