Multiple citations, same reference

Doing a new full reference for each citation is "not wrong", if your community decides that's how it wants its citation style.

But most wikis name the first citation to a reference. Then, for additional citations to the same reference, they use a self-closing reference tag with the same name:

Some apples are red.&lt;ref name="apple-colors">http://delicious.apl/colors&lt;/ref>

Apples can also be green.&lt;ref name="apple-colors" />

Some apples are red.[ 1]

Apples can also be green.[ 1]
