Hello, I am the former Regional Ambassador for the South East and also a trained Campus Ambassador for WCU, AB-Tech and UNCA. Although I currently reside in Western North Carolina, teaching Political Science and Humanities at AB-Tech. I am happy to help and talk with anyone needing assistance regardless of your location with wiki grants, wiki in the class room, and Wikipedia in general. If I can't help you with your problem or question, I will put you in touch with a person that can! Feel free to just drop me a line and chat as well! I Recently graduated from Western Carolina MPA program focusing on Environmental Policy. In 2010 I received a degree from the University of North Carolina Asheville in Political Science. I have course work in a Ph.D in Environmental Policy and Political Science from Colorado State University with sub focuses on campaign financing, alternative energy policy and interests in solving cultural diversity issues here in the United States. I currently teach Political Science, at Asheville Buncombe Community College, UNC Asheville and assist our school in all their Wikipedia needs. I have a huge focus on expanding the history of those who have survived the Holocaust, those who perished during it, and many of the atrocities committed in Nazi-occupied territories during World War II.

CITATION TEMPLATE: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_templates http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Ambassadors/Resources

Here are the links to the main citation templates for people:

• {{Cite book}}
• {{Cite journal}}
• {{Cite web}} – (use this for web news as well)
• {{Cite news}}
• {{Cite video}}
• {{Citation}} ... when all else fails

There are more, but those are the ones I use the most. I recommend keeping the body of the article clean of reference code, and thus using list defined references (LDR). (This results in all references being listed under the "References" section.) You may use your own article as an example. When books or large sources are used, I usually create a "Literature cited" subsection under "References" and list these large sources there, while also using the ref = harv parameter in the citation templates. This allows me to use more advanced references (call "short footnotes") for those sources. The template for short footnotes is:

• {{Sfn}}

to have your page rated, add this: Brackets2x - Category:Article Feedback Pilot - 2xBrackets

And as always, I strongly recommend archiving your online sources (excluding Google Books and the like) on something like WebCite (see this). Hope this helps.
