It's easy to put glowing praise, but any drawbacks, limitations or adverse reviews should be mentioned to give a balance. In-line references are important to tie a source to what it is supporting, and are mandatory for good and featured articles, and those rated grade A or B. After the text you put <ref>source</ref>, and at the end of the article you put a References section with the template {{Reflist}}. The following is taken from an article I've writing to show what I mean Jimfbleak - talk to me? 05:50, 14 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The gadfly petrels in the genus Pterodroma are seabirds of temperate and tropical oceans. Many are little-known, and their often similar appearance have caused the taxonomy of the group to be rather fluid.[1] The forms breeding in Macaronesia on Madeira, Bugio in the Desertas Islands, and in the Cape Verde archipelago were long considered to be subspecies of the Southern Hemisphere Soft-plumaged Petrel, P. mollis, but differences in size, vocalisations, breeding behaviour and mitochondrial DNA analysis showed that the northern birds are not closely related to P. mollis,[2] and that the Bermuda Petrel or Cahow may be the closest relative of the Macaronesian birds.[1] Sangster recommended establishing Zino's Petrel on Madeira and Fea's Petrel on the Desertas and Cape Verde as full species,[2] and the species split was accepted by the Association of European Rarities Committees (AERC) in 2003.[3] More recently, some authorities have further split Fea's Petrel, separating the Desertas Islands breeding birds from those in the Cape Verde archipelago.[4]
