This page provides examples of how to create links and references.
This is the main thread
Sometimes you want to link to pages that you name in the main thread of your page, like Wikipedia.
But sometimes you just want to state a fact and only give the reference for that fact at the end of the page. You can do this using 'ref' tags, like like this[1]
You can choose to format your references like scientific citations like this one[2].
And you can cite the same reference twice by giving the ref tag a name like this[3] which is cited again here[3].
This is where you could list references
To make your references automatically appear at the end of the document, you use a 'references' tag like this:
- ↑ This is a reference for a fact that was stated in the main thread of the page. It can also include links if you want, like this link to Wikipedia.
- ↑ Watson, F. (2009) How to reference things in the EcoViz Wiki. Journal that Doesn't Really Exist, 1:1-23.
- ↑ 3.0 3.1 A reference that is cited twice
