Thank you for improving article quality in May. One of mine was Jadwiga Rappé. --

ProQuest

When the report was accessed it was accessed through ProQuest. You are more than welcome to add an ID, but it is not required. The empty ProQuest ID templates throw an error that causes further cleanup edits behind you to fix. -- Guerillero Parlez Moi 20:01, 20 May 2025 (UTC)

::Thanks. A few points: 1. If an editor says the citation is "via ProQuest" they should provide the ProQuest data that will verify where the ProQuest citation can be found. (1.a. How do we encourage editors to actually verify such data?) 2. When the "id=" is in the citation, nothing shows up in the article reference listing because there is no actual data in the listing portion of the "id=" parameter. 3. Example: I just now added "|id={{ProQuest|via= }}" to :Olive Smithells. I do not see any error message or any listing in the hidden categories. 4. In the particular case that you reverted, I think the error message was generated by a different item in the multiple edits you reverted. 5. Egad! I hope my understanding of what I did is correct. – S. Rich (talk) 22:09, 20 May 2025 (UTC)

:::I've also raised this issue with you before, and you really need to stop changing these citations to your preferred version. The template documentation for cite news in the template data section for the via parameter, clearly gives examples of accepted usage, Example EBSCOHost, Proquest, Newspapers.com. This has been brought to your attention before [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Srich32977&oldid=1286875654#Can_you_explain_this? as seen here], and over the objections of several editors now, you continue changing them, when it's clear you don't have consensus to keep on changing them, so please stop, as continuing this editing behavior could be potentially seen as disruptive. Additionally, when you needlessly changed one [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Foreign_involvement_in_the_Venezuelan_presidential_crisis&diff=1295328452&oldid=1284627660 as seen here], you didn't even bother to check if there was an online version of that source, [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Foreign_involvement_in_the_Venezuelan_presidential_crisis&diff=1295353831&oldid=1295352014 which I easily found].
