Thanks for contributing to our shared family tree. Since we all share these ancestors, they are all our family members. (We are 9th cousins). The Sources Help discusses what should go into the sources for a profile. The Sources FAQ further explains how to provide information that provides a clear identification of where the information on the profile came from.
You might find the WikiTree Sourcer browser extension helpful. Although it is easier to find sources when there is a location on the profile, I was able to find Ira L Waid in the 1880 census with his parents and sister ("United States Census, 1880," database with images, FamilySearch (https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:MZZR-R6C : 14 January 2022), Ira L. Wade in household of William H. Wade, Sardinia, Erie, New York, United States; citing enumeration district , sheet , NARA microfilm publication T9 (Washington, D.C.: National Archives and Records Administration, n.d.), FHL microfilm .)
