- Greetings! Just so I understand this correctly. Maximum Rock and Roll Magazine is arguably the most famous (independent) punk rock magazine in the USA so I'm curious as to what reliable resources would be better? That said, I can add others of course, for instance I will add The Florida-Times Union article covering them Would that do it? Albieabbiati (talk) 19:47, 20 February 2025 (UTC) [reply ]

The comment the reviewer left was:
Unfortunately we would need a couple more sources. Please also format your references as in-line citations by following the tutorial at WP:INTREFVE.

Your drafts
[edit ]Hi Albieabbiati, I have not dug into either of your drafts but at a glance they both seem promising so I have marked them such. Don't give up. I think more sources exist, it's just about finding them. Have you checked Google Books? Are you familiar with Internet Archive? I'm not as active here as once was so if you reply but do not hear back me, click the Talk link by a signature to leave me a note on my talk page (bug me!).

- Thank you! I found them in quite a few Google Books so thank you for the suggestion. (Love the internet archive website btw) Albieabbiati (talk) 17:34, 3 March 2025 (UTC) [reply ]

- Greetings. Thanks for the note on one of the pages I'm trying to add. I did find that the band was written about through Googele Books so thank you. How would you suggest i incorporate them as references? Albieabbiati (talk) 17:43, 3 March 2025 (UTC) [reply ]
- Hi @Albieabbiati, be sure when you are in edit mode you are using the Visual Editor. When you select edit, on the top right corner there is pencil icon where you can choose which editing tool (Source or Visual Editor). Select Visual Editor then follow the instructions at WP:INTREFVE. Essentially, you copy the Google Book url into the Automatic citation function, click Generate and it will format it for you, then Insert. I did add one book by Kevin Dunn to the draft and reformatted your citations so take a look. I took a stab at placing them in-line but you can move them as needed (in edit mode drag and drop or cut/paste the footnote number in the prose).
- You can also use the same source multiple times which you will likely need to do so everything is cited in-line to a source (see Reusing references in the instructions but you can also use copy/paste like above). It's pretty easy once you get steps down. There's also at least a couple Billboard sources in Google Books. The Automatic function does not work well with Billboard because it thinks it's a book rather than magazine but use the Automatic function anyway (something is better than nothing) then leave me a note and I will reformat them for you if you use them. No need to wait for me to do so, though. When you are ready to resubmit the draft, submit it. Formatting, etc. can take place anytime. Having adequate sources to meet the notability criteria is much more important. S0091 (talk) 18:54, 3 March 2025 (UTC) [reply ]
- You are so kind! Thanks for the lessons. Albieabbiati (talk) 17:41, 6 March 2025 (UTC) [reply ]
