Cite:ref
[edit]My version of a help page (cf Wikipedia:Footnotes) in my sandbox: WP:Cite:Ref - the wikipedia Reference-Footnote system.
Previous Wikipedia:Footnote3
[edit]- {{ref|xxx}} for reference, where xxx is some short name for the citation.
- Under '==References==' place {{note|xxx}}
- If the same source has to be used several times, the additional references have to identify the footnote number and a label with which to identify the backlink (usually a letter "a" through "z").
- {{ref|xxx}} & then {{ref_label|xxx|1|a}} for the first and subsequent additional reference links - In this case, "1" is the number in the References section and "a" is the backlink label.
- {{note|xxx}} & then {{note_label|xxx|1|a}} for the first and subsequent additional reference links.

The Original Barnstar | ||
To all CLINMED participants – today is Physician's Day down here, and, both in honor of this day and in recognition of your tireless work towards making (and keeping, IMHO) Wikipedia a reliable source of medical information for laypersons and professionals alike, I award each and every one of you these shiny (rather rusty, actually) Original Barnstars!!! Wear them with pride! (feel free to add one to your user page/talk page if you like. Go ahead, you know you earned it.) Fvasconcellos 23:58, 18 October 2006 (UTC) |
