Adding references is easy...really it is! edit
Hello! Remember to add references from reliable sources for the content you add to Wikipedia. This helps maintain our policy of verifiability. Adding a well formatted references is very easy to do.
- While editing any article or a wikipage, on the top of the edit window you will see a toolbar which says "cite"...click on it.
- Then click on "templates"
- Choose the most appropriate template and fill as many details as you can, this will add a well formatted reference that will be helpful in case the website link (web URL) becomes inactive (dead/link rot) after some time.
You can read more about it on Help:Edit toolbar or see this video File:RefTools.ogv. Have fun, Shearonink (talk) 17:53, 3 October 2012 (UTC)
