Adding sources

[edit]

I am ready to improve this page by (1) adding two new sources to confirm information in the page and (2) improving the format of the sources. I do need some help in improving the format, however. Can someone direct me to the proper tool for creating sources? Moetapeega (talk) 15:14, 26 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Following your request, I converted the previous unsystematic citations to Harvard style short citations; this system is explained at Help:Shortened footnotes. You then undid that in your edit and added a large number of duplicate citations. Please familiarise yourself with the articles about referencing, like Help:Footnotes, or try to understand what I did in my edit. Until then, I will revert your edit per WP:CITEVAR. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 12:30, 28 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Article name

[edit]

Why is this article named Katharine von Bora when her name was Katharina von Bora and "Katherine" doesn't appear at all in the article or in the sources? The article ought to be moved to Katharina von Bora (opera). -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 12:30, 28 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Is this article an "orphan"?

[edit]

A note at the top of the page says that this article is an "orphan" because it is not linked to any other articles. But this article has links to nine other articles in Wikipedia. Shouldn't it lose the "orphan" tag?Moetapeega (talk) 21:19, 7 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

You misread that note. It says, " no other articles link to it." – note to and the clickable link. In other words, if other articles would link to this one, the opera, that banner could be removed. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 04:29, 8 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. Now there is a Wikipedia article with a link to this page. Is this page now no longer an orphan?Moetapeega (talk) 19:47, 16 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Not technically; see WP:Orphan#Criteria. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 06:09, 17 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. I see that "a single, relevant incoming link is sufficient to remove the tag," although three or more would be ideal. It seems to me that one relevant link is technically enough; but I will seek more. --Moetapeega (talk) 17:32, 17 August 2018 (UTC) I have found a second Wikipedia article that links to this article. It is "Category:Operas set in the 16th century." I hope this helps!--Moetapeega (talk) 17:44, 17 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I think that the "orphan" tag can be removed from this page now. Two other Wikipedia pages link to it.Moetapeega (talk) 23:13, 5 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
