] is quite clear, the fields are city and country, not city, country and sovereign country. I'm sure you are well aware of this given that a number of editors have pointed this out to you, but yet you refuse to take note.

But to make it crystal clear, here is the relevant section:

Regarding your assertion that the sovereign nation should not be added to the infobox, there is nothing in the documentation that cites this. It would be best to seek clarification and would ask that you join in the discussion on the MOS talk page linked above. ] (]) 15:52, 21 August 2020 (UTC)

Information icon Hello, and thank you for your efforts to improve Misplaced Pages, and in particular for adding references! However, adding a bare URL is not ideal, and exposes the reference to link rot. It is preferable to use proper citation templates when citing sources, including details such as title, author, date, and any other information necessary for a bibliographic citation. Here's an example of a full citation using the {{cite web}} template to cite a web page:

Lorem ipsum<ref>{{cite web |title=Download the Scanning Software - Windows and Mac |publisher=Canon Inc |work=Ask a Question |date=2022 |url=https://support.usa.canon.com/kb/index?page=content&id=ART174839 |access-date=2022-04-02}}</ref> dolor sit amet.

which displays inline in the running text of the article as:

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.

and displays under References as:

1. ^ Download the Scanning Software - Windows and Mac". Ask a Question. Canon Inc. 2022. Retrieved 2022-04-02.

If you've already added one or more bare URLs to an article, there are tools available to expand them into full citations; try the reFill tool, which can resolve some bare references semi-automatically. Once again, thanks for adding references to articles. VenFlyer98 (talk) 20:34, 5 September 2024 (UTC)
