Citing your sources

  1. At the paragraph which you want to add the reference, type <ref> reference text </ref>.
  2. At the bottom of page in the edit box, type ==References==.

Your references will be automatically generated. Check with your Professor to find out the preferred reference format for your class.


Example:

Professor Howard Hunter is the president of Singapore Management University.[1]

The sun is pretty big, but the moon is not so big.[2]
