Our preferred method of citation is using the <span class="plainlinks">"[http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Cite/Cite.php cite.php]"</span> form of inline citations, using the <nowiki><ref></ref></nowiki> elements. Using this method, each time a particular source is mined for information (''don't copy word-for-word''!), a footnote is placed in the text ("inline"), that takes one to the detail of the source when clicked, set forth in a references [[Help:Section|section]] after the text of the article.</small></p><p> | ||
<small>In brief, anywhere you want a footnote to appear in a piece of text, you place an opening <nowiki><ref></nowiki> tag followed by the text of the citation which you want to appear at the bottom of the article, and close with a <nowiki></ref></nowiki> tag. Note the closing slash ("/"). For multiple use of a single reference, the opening ref tag is given a name, like so: <nowiki><ref name="name"></nowiki> followed by the citation text and a closing <nowiki></ref></nowiki> tag. Each time you want to use that footnote again, you simply use the first element with a slash, like so: <nowiki><ref name="name" /></nowiki>.</small></p><p><small>In order for these references to appear, you must tell the software where to display them, using either the code <nowiki><references/></nowiki> or, most commonly, the template, {{tl|Reflist}} which can be modified to display the references in columns using <nowiki>{{Reflist|colwidth=30em}}</nowiki>.
