Help:Cite

The cite extension on Wikia allows you to add footnotes and references to articles, like this.

How to use it
Citations are enabled on all Wikia wikis. To create a footnote or reference, simply switch to source mode while editing and then place your text inside   tags. In source mode, the first sentence on this page would look like this:


 * The cite extension allows you to add footnotes and references to articles, like this. 

At the end of the page create a references, footnotes, or citations section and include the code ''' or   just after the text in question.

However, not all wikis have a fact template. To create one, start a new page called Template:Fact. Switch to source mode, and paste the following code into the page:

...which creates [citation needed].

Then click to publish the template.

More fun with citations
Eventually, you may want to create templates specifically for use in references to keep order - for example, a template for web addresses, another for book references.

Finally, you may wish to customize the references list design itself, such as giving it two columns or reducing the text size slightly. See as an example.
