Unable to review edit request
Your edit request could not be reviewed because the provided references are not formatted correctly. The citation style predominantly used by the Logicworks article is Citation Style 1 (CS1). The citation style used in the edit request consists of bare URL's.^[a] Any requested edit of yours which may be implemented will need to resemble the current style already in use in the article – in this case, CS1 (See WP:CITEVAR). This would not normally be a problem in a request of a smaller size, whereas larger requests would be expected to have this formatting done before the request is submitted for review. In the extended section below titled Citation style, I have illustrated two examples: one showing how the edit request was submitted, and another showing how requests for this article should be submitted in the future:

Citation style

Plain Reference Style Formatting:

The sun is pretty big.<ref>https://www.booksource.com</ref> The moon is not so big.<ref>https://www.journalsource.com</ref> The sun is also quite hot.<ref>https://www.websource.com</ref>

Displays as:

The sun is pretty big.^[1] The moon is not so big.^[2] The sun is also quite hot.^[3]

References

1. https://www.booksource.com
2. http://www.journalsource.com
3. http://www.websource.com

In the example above there are three URL's provided with the claim statements, but these URL's have not been placed using Citation Style 1, which is the style predominantly used by the Logicworks article. Using this style, the WikiFormatted text would resemble the following:

Citation Style 1 Formatting:

The sun is pretty big,<ref>{{cite book|last1=Sjöblad|first1=Tristan|title=The Sun|url=http://www.booksource.com|publisher=Academic Press|date=2018|page=1}}</ref> but the moon is not so big.<ref>{{cite journal|last1=Duvalier|first1=Gabrielle|title=Size of the Moon|journal=Scientific American|issue=78|volume=51|url=http://www.journalsource.com|date=2018|page=46}}</ref> The sun is also quite hot.<ref>{{cite book|last1=Uemura|first1=Shu|title=The Sun's Heat|url=http://www.websource.com|publisher=Academic Press|date=2018|page=2}}</ref>
Displays as:

The sun is pretty big,^[1] but the moon is not so big.^[2] The sun is also quite hot.^[3]

^ Duvalier, Gabrielle. "Size of the Moon", Scientific American, 51(78):46.

^ Uemura, Shū. The Sun's Heat. Academic Press, 2018, p. 2.

In the example above the references have been formatted according to Citation Style 1, which shows the author, the source's name, date, etc., all information which is lost when only the links are provided. As I indicated above, since Wikipedia is a volunteer project, larger edit requests such yours are generally expected to have this formatting done before the request is submitted for review.

Kindly rewrite your edit request so that it aligns more with the second example shown in the collapsed section above, and feel free to re-submit that edit request at your earliest convenience. If you have any questions about this formatting please don't hesitate to ask myself or another editor. Regards, Spintendo 20:28, 22 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Notes

^ The use of bare URLs as references is a style which is acceptable for use in Wikipedia. However, general practice dictates that the style already in use for an article be the one that is subsequently used for all future additions unless changed by editorial consensus.^[1]

References

^ "WP:CITEVAR - Wikipedia:Citing sources". Wikipedia. 20 October 2018. Retrieved 22 October 2018. It is normal practice to defer to the style used by the first major contributor or adopted by the consensus of editors already working on the page, unless a change in consensus has been achieved. If the article you are editing is already using a particular citation style, you should follow it.
