User talk:Hylian Senshi

Tips
Hey, there, and welcome to Zelda Wiki.org! I saw your questions on the Sandbox page (which, for future reference, are questions better asked on any one of our active users' talk pages), and I think that I can answer them. For quotes, we have a magical template that is called the   template. It's typed out as such: ''' "words"

- source ''', where "words" is the actual quote itself and "source" is who said it. So "Hey, this is a quote!"

- Ando would make this: "Hey, this is a quote!"

- Ando

As for citing sources without actually making them a reference, well... why exactly do you need to do this? I ask because most of these situations should still use the reference coding instead of just a "Page source: whatever", given that when other people edit, they may not be using that source, making it inaccurate. Therefore, using references at the specific points in which the source was used is better. Can you give me the specific example of what you're trying to do? Perhaps we can work out a solution. If you need anything else, don't hesitate to ask! 22:43, 28 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Oh! I just looked at what you were trying to do with the Dodongo's Cavern article, and I see what you're asking now. Basically, you'll place the exact wording of the part of the source that's relevant to what you're posting, but you'll use the reference tags. Link's Crossbow Training is a decent example of this. See how you've got the numbers such as [1] and such? If you look at the coding, there are words encased in tags. Then, at the bottom of the page, the references are displayed. In the Dodongo's Cavern situation, I'm not so sure that it's required (references are more so there to prove what we're saying; not many are going to ask for proof that Dodongo's Cavern is rocky or anything like that), but look at and study how some of the rest of us do stuff like this, and I'm sure you'll get the hang of it before too long. ;) 22:53, 28 June 2008 (UTC)
