Hi Chedzilla! Thanks for your advice, it's all a bit confusing to me right now (not even sure if I'm replying to you correctly!), but hopefully I'll get the hang of it soon! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cassbag16 (talk • contribs) 06:52, 30 May 2012 (UTC)

Re: hey

Thanks for your message. I was sitting here watching you work away, and scratching my head, thinking "what is this guy up to?" ;) You currently have two references listed and one still inline... they should all probably be one way or the other. There is however a chance that someone might consider your efforts an unnecessary change and revert to an earlier version. From what I understand, neither ref-style is any more correct than the other. Oh well... we both got a laugh out of it. ;) Have fun, and happy editing! :)  -- WikHead (talk) 12:38, 30 May 2012 (UTC)

I work pretty extensively with reference formatting and frequently see a variety of different ref-style preferences in use. From my own observations though, I'd say that placing the entire citation inline is by far the most common way... but of course not the only way. When I apply ref fixes, I always work with whatever's there, without changing the existing style, even if it alternates. I guess my personal preference would probably be inline, but fully agree with you that list-style helps keep the source-code much tidier. :)  -- WikHead (talk) 13:17, 30 May 2012 (UTC)

I had friends into NASCAR back in the late 90s who I used to watch races with, but never really followed it on my own. I indeed have an interest, but probably not enough knowledge on the topic to feel comfortable writing about it.  -- WikHead (talk) 13:25, 30 May 2012 (UTC)

Pesky p'd off ...

Hey 'zilla; the editor upon whose page you dropped a note (you know the one) has been a problem before. And, from what I can gather, pretty consistently. You know how patient I am, but it was pretty obvious that there was edit-stalking going on in the past, and the editor brought their battle over to my talk page and just couldn't take a hint, no matter how I tried handling it. I had to ask them to stay off my talk (and that's a really rare occurrence – only two editors in over 17K edits have had that honour.) I'm personally inclined to think it may be time for a topic ban for this one, for anything horse-related, broadly construed, as the editor seems unable to shake off grudges and it's getting beyond a joke.
