Early help questions
Hello KJPlant

In an email to me your wrote:


 * "I just wanted to make sure that I had set up my page properly. I started out by creating an account with Wikibooks, then on the Healthy Eating Habits homepage (https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Healthy_eating_habits) I pressed edit, and inserted the title of my page into "Your page name here". This then created a link to a blank page which I have since been editing. The link to my page is https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Healthy_eating_habits/Healthy_Eating_for_a_Healthy_Heart. The reason why I'm not sure that I've done this correctly, is because the page doesn't seem linked to me in any way, and I can edit the page without even logging in. So, if you could just double check what I've done, I'd really appreciate it.

No worries. Your page is in the right place. Well done. It is a subpage to the Healthy eating habits contents page. Yes, anyone can edit your page. All edits are saved in the History tab, next to the Edit tab. You'll see all your edits recorded there under "KJPlant". If you forget to log in to Wikibooks, your edits will be recorded as an IP Address number. Try and remember to log in. If you haven't already, you should familiarise yourself with the terms and conditions of Wikibooks, specifically the copyright of your work. Wikibooks, like Wikipedia is an open collaborative editing environment. This copyright policy makes this possible.


 * "The other issue I'm having is regarding referencing. When I use the same reference for more than one statement, it creates two separate references, instead of directing the second reference to the first. For example, on my page references 1 and 5 are the same, but they are coming up as separate. Any ideas how I can fix this?"

Yes, you need to give the reference a short name, then use that short name each time you repeat the reference. The first reference has all the detail, then the short name picks up and repeats that detail. Here's a help page, and I'll edited your page to demonstrate.

You've made a great start, but I'm afraid your poster image copyright status needs to be clarified. If it is not, it will be deleted. The good news is that the NHMRC sometimes requires works produced with their funds to use the same copyright license used by Wikibooks. This is to enable people like us to use it in work like you've done. You'll need to go back to the page where you found this image, and look for a copyright statement. If you're unsure, email the owner, and point them to your page. You need their permission to publish the copy you've made here on Wikibooks and (where you uploaded the image). There's a high chance your image will be deleted before you obtain this permission and send it in to Commons. I've copied this note into the discussion page of the image on Commons, to hopefully delay that action.

Images
I see you've taken down the image you had up. Good luck getting permission to use it, finding an alternative, or creating your own. I thought I'd have a quick look in commons:
