[edit] Sorry about Madhubala page

I accidently deleted the hollywood section. However could you please cite your sources in each of the sections that u added on Madhubala as wikipedia does not allow stuff about actresses to be added that is from a fan point of view. The information has to be written in a way to make it informative and not make it seem that a fan has written it. Thank you Shakirfan 19:47, 2 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re Sorry about the Madhubala page

Dear Shakeel no need to apologise! At the end i do have a section citing my refernce sources is this not enough or do I have to really mention the source at every point? This would spoil the flow of the text and also make it even longer? Is it not enough that I cited them at the end or do I have to go in and change it?? Thanks Nav

[edit] Re: Madhubala

What you have included in the references is fine but I think some links from around the internet should also be cited and not just each of the books or or other sources that you got the information from. Also when u are writing in each of the sections of the article to add a reference you put ^[1] at the end of the sentences. Then under the References heading at the bottom of page put

1. ^ the link goes here

The links will then appear at the bottom of the page like this. If you are not sure how to do this get back to me on my talk page. Thanks. Shakirfan 02:44, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
