Hello Lyn1644 and welcome to Wikipedia! I wish to commend you for the article Fang Guozhen. Glad to see one more editor working on early modern Chinese history. Don't hesitate to let me know if you have any questions.
Cheers, --The Lonely Pather (talk) 20:57, 23 February 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you! I’m glad my first articles turned out well. Do you know the best detailed English sources for Chinese history? Right now I’ve been relying on the Cambridge History but have only found a few other sources outside of that (mostly through googling and google scholar). Lyn1644 (talk) 21:22, 23 February 2024 (UTC)
- Dear @Lyn1644: I am not a specialist in general Chinese history, and I don't know much about English sources on Chinese history. Surely you know that Chinese sources also work as long as they are WP:reliable. That being said, I did a little search in 10 minutes:
- Ming Studies, an English journal published in the US
- A list of books compiled by the University of Minnesota on the history of Ming.
- Copper Coins and the Emperor's Wallet: The Role of Currency in Ming China. Ming economics is lots of fun.
- The Eunuchs in the Ming Dynasty. Surely you could write about power play at the Ming imperial court.
- When China Ruled the Seas: The Treasure Fleet of the Dragon Throne, 1405-1433. Early Ming diplomacy and exploration is also notable.
- Cheers, --The Lonely Pather (talk) 22:36, 23 February 2024 (UTC)
- These are very nice, thank you. As for Chinese sources, there are two reasons why I try not to use them: Firstly, most people on English Wikipedia probably can't read Chinese, so it is more helpful to readers when a page has more English sources. But more importantly, I can't fluently read Chinese yet. So when I do include a Chinese source, it is copied from the Chinese Wikipedia and only for very basic information.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Li Siqi (warlord) (February 24)
- Should be fixed now. I included Dreyer since he was an author of the relevant chapters, but that was wrong. I will also fix the citations for some other articles that use the Cambridge History of Ming. Lyn1644 (talk) 21:13, 24 February 2024 (UTC)

「千里之行 始於足下」
For your passion to dig into history on lesser known figures, and for your willingness to learn and improve your editing. May this barnstar be one of the many you shall receive in the future. Cheers, --The Lonely Pather (talk) 09:30, 9 March 2024 (UTC) |
- P. S. Maybe it's time to use sfn to reformat your citations for Draft:Liu Futong and Bolad Temür? Cheers, --The Lonely Pather (talk) 09:31, 9 March 2024 (UTC)
- I will do this, as well as for some other articles I've done. Lyn1644 (talk) 22:58, 9 March 2024 (UTC)
- How do I use sfn for websites? Specifically for chinaknowledge.de. Thanks, Lyn1644 (talk) 23:16, 9 March 2024 (UTC)
- Good question. Use
{{cite web| ... }}
instead of{{cite book| ... }}
, and put it in a subsection titled "Websites". You can do the same thing for newspapers (use{{cite news| ... }}
), etc. Cheers, --The Lonely Pather (talk) 23:54, 9 March 2024 (UTC)- How do I make it so that when I hover over the citation it will bring me to the reference? Lyn1644 (talk) 00:07, 10 March 2024 (UTC)
- For in-text footnotes, do the same thing as usual.
{{sfn|author last name|year}}
You don't need to list a page number, but it is good to put a quote. To use a quote, do{{sfn|author last name|year|loc= "QUOTE CONTENT"}}
. Cheers, --The Lonely Pather (talk) 00:09, 10 March 2024 (UTC) - It is also okay to put websites not in sfn, but directly in <ref> tags. I prefer to use sfn if and only if there is a clear author and a publication date. Cheers, --The Lonely Pather (talk) 00:11, 10 March 2024 (UTC)
