Sweethearts (film)
Hi dear! I looked it over, made some minor WP:MOS edits (character names aren't bolded), it looks good, but it needs references! It won an academy award, so that definitely needs to be sourced for sure, there should be something out there that could be used (IMDB of course isn't a reliable source). And since it won an award, a mention of the critical reception of the film should be made below the plot, reviews, etc. Hopefully something is out there in Interweb-land :D ~*Hugs*~ Ariel♥Gold 16:55, 19 June 2009 (UTC)
- LOL You are not a beginner! You rock as an editor, you always have ;) And finding sources for very old movies like that can't be easy. It is a great article! ~*Hugs*~ Ariel♥Gold 07:39, 20 June 2009 (UTC)
- You can find all the article maintenance tags here. For a biased article, that is a neutrality issue, and should be tagged with {{POV}} or {{weasel}}, or {{unbalanced}}, but there may be other tags that are also appropriate in the section on accuracy. For poorly researched (which basically means it is poorly sourced) you could use one of these templates, {{original research}}, if it seems like much of it is just someone's opinion with no verifiable sources given, {{refimprove}} to request additional references, etc. Go through that list and I'm sure you'll find something appropriate. ~*Hugs*~ Ariel♥Gold 14:45, 22 June 2009 (UTC)
- If he wasn't an actor, just use the Template:Infobox person box. ~*Hugs*~ Ariel♥Gold 15:38, 23 June 2009 (UTC)

For repeated citations, you want to use the 'name' parameter. <ref name="three">{{Cite web|etc|etc}}</ref>. Then, to use the ref again, simply put <ref name="three"/> with the backslash at the end. You might also want to look into using the templates, as they make citations standard, and are easy to use. Also, the fourth reference returned an error because it did not have the quotation marks (") around the reference name. One other note, when adding a URL, use the brackets, not parentheses, so there aren't "naked" URLs in references. One single bracket around a URL produces [1], while adding a space and title at the end, produces Wikipedia a name. [http://en.wikipedia.org Wikipedia] , so when not using citation templates, it is best to put the URL's page title into the brackets as the "title" of the reference. For that article, I put the refs into templates so they would work. I'm not sure why they weren't working before, and I couldn't get them to work without putting them into templates, so that is what I did, lol. ~*Hugs*~ Ariel♥Gold 23:13, 25 June 2009 (UTC)
