Help:Bibliographic References
From selfstudy
Usage
Use this template to create a reference list in an article with a small font. Note that there is no consensus that small font size should always be used for all references; when normal-sized font is more appropriate on an article, use <references /> instead.
If used with no parameters, it will produce a reference list with a single column.
Three options for usage
Option 1 (only specific references) — Example: Specific References
==Content==
Lorem ipsum.<ref>Source name, access date, etc.</ref>
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.<ref>Source name, access date, etc.</ref>
== References ==
{{reflist}}
==Option 2 General references
==Content==
Lorem ipsum.
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.
==References==
{{refbegin}}
* general reference 1
* general reference 2
{{refend}}
Option 3 (both specific and general references) — Example: Specific and General References
==Content==
Lorem ipsum.<ref>Source name, access date, etc.</ref>
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.<ref>Source name, access date, etc.</ref>
Lorem ipsum.
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.
==References==
{{reflist}}
{{refbegin}}
* general reference 1
* general reference 2
{{refend}}
Multiple Use Footnote - Example: Multiple Use Footnote
<ref name=foo>text of note</ref> at each in-text place.
- Alternatively <ref name=foo /> A self-closing tag on every use after name=foo has been defined.
(Only needed once per article)<references/> under the Notes heading; exactly the same as to make a single-use note.
