On sources, and reusing refs
Hi, thanks for your efforts to improve Wikipedia on its 20th birthday, quite a thing.
On sources, we generally don't rely on other encyclopedia-like websites (tertiary sources) which offer general definitions: those may be better than nothing, but really we like to use reliable secondary sources which are specialised to the kind of knowledge in a particular article: in a yoga article, that means yoga research or independent yoga websites.
I saw that you added sources to the lead (top) section in articles; this is usually not necessary, as long as the article's body (the main text) is properly cited, i.e. the lead is allowed to rely on the body's citations.
One small thing: if you want to reuse a citation, you don't have to define it all over again with identical copies. All you need to do is to name it the first time, and reuse the name part, like this:
<ref name="AYLI 3.1">As You Like It, Act 3, Scene 1</ref> ......... text.<ref name="AYLI 3.1"/>
Note that the reused named ref has to end with a / just before the final angle bracket.
Note by the way that the final "." goes just before the ref!
What a lot of things to remember all at once. Good luck! Chiswick Chap (talk) 15:02, 15 January 2021 (UTC)
- Hi ChiswickChap,
- Thanks a lot for your information and guidance and as iam new user it will help me in my editing in future.
Gardenkur (talk) 11:56, 17 January 2021 (UTC)
- Thank you! However, that means choosing the best sources. Those will be textbooks and academic journal articles. Popular news items, blog, and commercial websites are very unlikely to be suitable for anything technical such as science or yoga, and are forbidden on some areas, such as medicine.

January 2021
Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit you made to Asana, did not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use your sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Hi, I've given you a friendly explanation with suggestions and you've totally ignored it! Not good enough. Chiswick Chap (talk) 09:53, 16 January 2021 (UTC)
Reliable sourcing
Hi - please stop adding citations to 'Medical News Today'? It looks quite ropey, I very much doubt that it's an RS. GirthSummit (blether) 06:41, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
Citation Hunt
I wonder whether you might have fun with Wikipedia:Citation Hunt. You just click the blue button and it will show you a paragraph that another editor has requested a citation for. You can search for your favorite topics if you want. This is a purely optional suggestion, of course, but maybe you'd enjoy it. WhatamIdoing (talk) 05:44, 20 January 2021 (UTC)
Requesting some citation support
Greetings,
Presently I am working on article Draft:Irrational beliefs. Coincidentally article on same topic @ https://psychology.wikia.org/wiki/Irrational_beliefs contains a good write up,That content is okay to use under under CC-BY-SA without copyright issues, but content there does not have any references or citations. So please see if you can help me out in citations for the same content i.e. following paragraphs. Thanks and warm regards Bookku (talk) 09:27, 22 January 2021 (UTC)
- "...Irrational beliefs are attitudes, beliefs values etc that a person strongly holds despite objective evidence, generally available and understood, to the contrary.
- Such beliefs can be maintained by intrapersonal cognitive structures, sometimes based on particular uncommon occurences. For example having been involved in a car accident I develop and maintain a belief that automobile travel is catastophically dangerous. We could develop a notional sliding scale of irrationality from beliefs that are only slight exagerations of what might be considered a 'normal reaction' to such events to extensive delusions which seem completely irrational. Cognitive dissonance theory and psychodynamic theory have been partly developed to explain how such beliefs are maintained.
- They can also be partly shaped by external social pressures. Studies of conformity have indicated how people will report irrational beliefs under the influence of group dynamics and peer pressure, while studies of cults show just how far these effects can go. ..."[1]
- @Justlettersandnumbers: Since you were on this talk page can you please take my above request to help and guidance. Thanks and warm regards Bookku (talk) 07:13, 24 January 2021 (UTC)
- Hi, Bookku, I'm afraid that's not a topic I have much interest in, and even less expertise. You could perhaps start with texts such as this, this or this. Sorry not to be able to be of more help, Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 10:37, 24 January 2021 (UTC)
Still you could help me in hinting couple of refs, thanks for the same, it is very nice of you. Bookku (talk) 10:44, 24 January 2021 (UTC)
References
Hi! Adding references to Wikipedia is a valuable and thoroughly worthwhile endeavour, thank you! However, it's only worth doing if (a) the reference is actually needed and (b) it is a solid reliable source. One possible way of finding where citations are lacking is to look at Category:Articles with unsourced statements or any one of its subcategories. The sources you cite should be only those with a solid reputation for reliability – academic papers, books published by well-known publishers, major national newspapers, the websites of major institutions and the like. With only a few exceptions, stuff you find on the internet is unlikely to be reliable by our standards. Good luck! Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 12:41, 23 January 2021 (UTC)
Unreliable sources
Thank you for contributing to the article Lithuania. However, please do not use unreliable sources such as blogs, your own website, websites and publications with a poor reputation for checking the facts or with no editorial oversight, expressing views that are widely acknowledged as extremist, that are promotional in nature, or that rely heavily on rumors and personal opinions, as one of Wikipedia's core policies is that contributions must be verifiable through reliable sources, preferably using inline citations. If you require further assistance, please look at Help:Contents/Editing Wikipedia, or ask at the Teahouse. It looks like you have been issued many warnings regarding the additions of unreliable sources so I advise you to stop. – Sabbatino (talk) 08:33, 30 January 2021 (UTC)
Important message regarding you
@Gardenkur: Greetings! I see that you like citing sources. Please though, make sure you read WP:CN and WP:VERIFY, because a massive amount of the ones you cite are unreliable and sometimes also not secondary. Cooperating and listening to advice is important in an encyclopedia as some people have been indefinitely blocked for refusing to cooperate, which I do not want to happen to you; I see that you haven't really responded to queries and comments about you citing sources. I fear that I might have to revert most of them in articles that are either BLP or medical. Again, please familiarize yourself with Wikipedia guidelines and make sure you pay attention to your talk page. Cheers. Wretchskull (talk) 10:58, 24 March 2021 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. In your recent edit to Borderless World Foundation, you added links to an article which did not add content or meaning, or repeated the same link several times throughout the article. Please see Wikipedia's guideline on links to avoid overlinking. Thank you. Kautilya3 (talk) 09:06, 14 April 2021 (UTC)
