See wp:citing sources. Simply adding [4] does not make a working citation. Thank you Adakiko (talk) 01:07, 2 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

John Ryerson (tennis)

Let's move he discussion here.
I recommend help:introduction for beginners.
Adding {{Chicago Tribune, 1910, May 17, Tue, Page 1}} is not a valid citation. Do you have a link to the article? If so, use the wp:template {{cite news}}. Click that link for (overly-detailed, confusing) documentation. Also, try help:referencing for beginners. There is a toolbar available on the default Wiki editor which can help fortatting a citation. Please ask as the wp:Teahouse for better advice! Cheers Adakiko (talk) 01:24, 2 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your contributed article, Draft:John Albert Ryerson

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, Draft:John Albert Ryerson. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – John Ryerson (tennis). Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at John Ryerson (tennis). If you have new information to add, you might want to discuss it at the article's talk page.

If you think the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. Eden Cheese (talk) 01:07, 17 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
