Different wikis have different rules. The terms citation and reference are often used interchangeably. I mean some people call parking tickets citations, but they never call them references... this is why I prefer "reference".

There are a built in tags that allow easy referencing,  to put after the thing you want to give cite/ref for and   for displaying the list of references.

However in most strict definitions, the entry that tells about the thing is a citation and the list of sources is called references.

This isn't a university paper... as long as your wiki audience understands what is what, that is the important thing, so just explain it somewhere.
