User talk:Kerri Park

Hello,

I'm trying to use the redirect function for David Bell. i tried the following:

1. REDIRECT David Bell (Permanent Secretary DCSF)
2. REDIRECT David Bell (Chairman, Financial Times Group)

Does this command have to appear on a completely blank page? and if so how do I get one?

Thank you, K

oh, and don't forget to add the formatting text that displays the footnotes at the bottom. It should look like this :

==Notes==

<references/>

1. I don't think I have referenced it correctly?!

• I have sorted this - but you will need to add the original sources

2. I practically lifted it straight from the Century of Spin book. If I am going to do that should I copy the text exact and use quotations? I some places I have added my own words and then then used those from the book. Is this wrong? Should I do it one way or the other - copy and paste with refs. or make it all my own words and ref?

• In general you should write in your own words and then use quotations where appropriate (ie from A Century of Spin). You also need to make sure you give the original source for each quote you use (ie from the footnotes in a Century of Spin)

to ask me questions click on my name below and then click discussion to go to my talk page.... --David 12:45, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

David Bell

to do this you would need to move the page David Bell to a new name: David Bell (Financial Times) and t5hen create the other new page: David Bell (civil servant). then go back to the orignal page and edit it so that it includes a link to both Davids.

I have done so...
