Adding reference details

edit

Here are a few tips. Good luck! --Zefr (talk) 23:34, 7 February 2020 (UTC)Reply

 
In the visual editor, paste a PubMed URL into the automatic cite dialog, and it will fill out a {{cite journal}} template for you. Insert it, and then click the "Edit" button on the context menu to make any changes you want. In the "Manual" tab, you can choose other citation templates or insert non-templated footnotes.

Wikipedia also has an editor that functions similar to a word processor. Many new editors find it easier. The video to the right shows you how to add a properly formatted reference using the new editor. If you are using PubMed simply add the URL with the PMID such as https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/?term=123456 and it will generate most of the details.

More general information is at WP:CIT and WP:REFB.
