This page gives general documentation valid for all MediaWiki installations which use the cite extension. For use of this feature in the English Wikipedia see w:Wikipedia:Footnotes, that page also includes more examples.

Cite.php method

• <ref>Reference text</ref>
• <ref name="id">Reference text</ref>

  the quotes are only needed if id contains spaces.

• <ref name="id"/>

  repeated use of same reference may be done as before or in this format with no need to repeat the reference text.

• <references/>

  inserts the full text of all pending inline citations defined by <ref>, anywhere on the page.

This is placed at the second insertion point of citation:

<ref name=Perry/>

This is placed at the third insertion point of citation:

<ref name=Perry/> ..... and so forth for further insertion points

Single insertion of a reference

For the single insertion of a reference, the "name" parameter is not needed. On the Edit page, this is placed at the insertion point of citation:

<ref>Excel For Dummies, First Edition, Hungry Minds, Inc., 1980.</ref>
