Hi, Geust. I noticed you've been adding endorsements to some of the presidential campaign articles, such as
Barry Goldwater 1964 presidential campaign. Thanks for doing that work. However, I see you've been adding duplicate references (e.g., FNs 146-58 of the Goldwater campaign article). These should be consolidated into a single instance of a reference by giving it a name that is then called in later iterations (e.g., FN 2 of the Goldwater campaign article). In the code for the initial instance of the reference, the <ref>
tag at the beginning should be replaced with <ref name=NICKNAME>
. That way, in later instances, you can call the reference by typing <ref name=NICKNAME/>
instead of duplicating the reference's code and thereby cluttering the list of references. Ping if questions. Thanks,

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited 1976 Republican Party presidential primaries, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Bill Young. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
