Citing sources

[edit]

Hold on there partner!

You are making edits like a city kid trying to milk a cow. You need to learn how to add REFERENCES.

RE: Your contributions to Case Corporation & P&O Plowing, please cite sources!

Learning to format your references; add author if available, title, original source, date, publication, hosting site if applicable, etc.

How to cite sources:

Wikipedia:Citing sources and also Wikipedia:Citing sources/example style

SEE: Wikipedia:Guide to writing better articles (This is a good one!)

Please and thank you...

You need to write in an encyclopedic manner, i.e.: You need to assume that the reader does not know what the U.S., or farming is and link to it. Pretend that you know ZERO about what "WI" is, then write that way.

Carry on,

P&O Plowing

[edit]

RE: P&O Plowing, I put a COPY VIOLATION tag in the article. It looks like you just did a copy+paste from Canton, Illinois website. For the most part, that is against the rules.

Hello Chesnimnus, welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Our intro page contains a lot of helpful material for new users—please check it out!

Just letting you know that there is no need to create two pages with similar information like you did with Delco ignition system and Kettering ignition system. You can create a redirect for the second page that will link to the first.
