:::*{{u|19jshi}}, I think you're asking if we can make the citation appear on the Main Page? No, we don't do that, but I see that you're submitting this as part of a course assignment, which has instruction that say {{xt|The "Did you know?" fact must be mentioned in the article and cited with an inline citation since inline citations are used to support specific statements in an article.}} The fact only needs to include a citation ''in the article'', on the sentence which support the hook fact, which it does; your prof will know it doesn't need (and can't have) a citation that appears on the main page.

Patricia Haynes Smith
- ... that state representative Patricia Haynes Smith (pictured) worked with gay rights group Equality Louisiana to decriminalize sodomy in Louisiana?
Created by 19jshi (talk). Self-nominated at 21:01, 20 October 2020 (UTC).
Great article. New enough (created October 17), long enough, NPOV, hook is interesting and inline cited to the New Orleans Times-Picayune which is RS. Earwig returns "violation unlikely" for copyvio at 16.7%. My only question is a stylistic one; can we just paraphrase the quoted portion rather than quoting it directly which is a bit clunky? Also, the direct quote may be non-compliant with MOS:QUOTE as we have to include attribution either in-text or through a footnote and, when the hook appears on the front page, no footnote will be included.

- Edited based on comments, thanks. Do you know how I can do the citation so it appears on the frontpage if the hook appears there? 19jshi (talk) 20:24, 22 October 2020 (UTC)
- Template:U, I think you're asking if we can make the citation appear on the Main Page? No, we don't do that, but I see that you're submitting this as part of a course assignment, which has instruction that say The "Did you know?" fact must be mentioned in the article and cited with an inline citation since inline citations are used to support specific statements in an article. The fact only needs to include a citation in the article, on the sentence which support the hook fact, which it does; your prof will know it doesn't need (and can't have) a citation that appears on the main page. —valereee (talk) 14:08, 23 October 2020 (UTC)
