This is a reminder than when you cite a newspaper article, you:
- put the title of the article in the citation - the real title of the article, not "article clipped from [newspaper name]"
- include the date of the article in the citation
- Include the name of the newspaper you are citing
- credit the author if they are credited in the article
Don't:
- cite Wikipedia as a source
- be sloppy with facts (ex, saying a person born in the 1800s was born in the USSR)
- Put a BLP tag on a biography of a dead person
Do:
- Do get birth dates right (Do not say someone was born in 1956 in the article lead but in 1959 in the infobox)
- Do call people by their official title (ex, President, Prime Minister, General, etc), not something super vague like "historical figure" or "person in history"
I'm not OCD, I'm CDO - in alphabetical order, the way it should be!
