Here is the wikitext for the previous paragraph with the <b><ref> tags in boldface</b>. Notice how a reference can be named (see <font color="red">red</font> below), and then cited again by name to avoid duplicating it in the reference list. (You could also see the wikitext by clicking the '''edit this page''' tab at the top of this article, but then be sure to click '''Cancel''' if you do not intend to change it.) | |||

When citing | Nearly all recent publications have a DOI (Digital Object Identifier). Some journals, monographs, and other publications are not indexed in PubMed. For most of these references, it's enough to enter "DOI:" followed by the DOI identifier, and then enclose it between <ref> and </ref>. For example, type '''<nowiki><ref>DOI: 10.1002/bmb.2005.494033022442</ref></nowiki>''' in the wikitext box and save the page. | ||
When citing a reference for which the DOI is not enough for automatically retrieving the full reference, you will need to type (or copy and paste) the entire reference text along with the DOI. You can hyperlink the DOI to go to the cited document. Suppose that the reference is | |||

For references not indexed at Pubmed, and lacking a DOI, you will need to put the information as you want it to appear in the reference list between the <ref> and </ref> tags. You may include hyperlinks (see hyperlinked DOI example above). You can also use <ref> and </ref> tags for footnotes that are not citations of publications (see below). | For references not indexed at Pubmed, and lacking a DOI, you will need to put the information as you want it to appear in the reference list between the <ref> and </ref> tags.
