Citations

[edit]

In text

[edit]

Place this next to the text which requires a citation:

{{ref_label|example.com|3|a}}

Examples

{{ref_label|example.com|3|a}}
{{ref_label|example.com|3|none}}
  • example.com is the source of the citation
  • 3 is the number which will be seen next to the text that is cited.
  • a or none is for using one source for several citations in the text and should be done in order (e.g., a, b, c) of those citations .

Under references

[edit]

Place this under the section titled References.

{{note_label|reference_name|number|id}}

Examples

{{note_label|example.com|3|a}}
{{note_label|example.com|3|none}}
