When citing a publication indexed at PubMed, type "PMID:" followed by the PubMedID number of the publication, and then enclose it between <ref> and </ref>. For example, type '''<nowiki><ref>PMID: 18673581</ref></nowiki>''' in the wikitext box and save the page. If you type the PubMedID in this manner, the properly formatted reference will created automatically at the bottom of the page (or wherever you place the necessary wikitext <nowiki>"<references/>"</nowiki>, read on..). The example reference: <ref>PMID: 18673581</ref>. | When citing a publication indexed at PubMed, type "PMID:" followed by the PubMedID number of the publication, and then enclose it between <ref> and </ref>.

====PubMed citations without footnote numbers==== | |||
It is also possible to list reference information from Pubmed without having them get assigned a bracketed number at the point of citation. This is done by adding them to the group '''xtra'''. For example this may be helpful when listing additional references indexed at Pubmed that don't contain items specifically cited in the text of the page. | |||
An example is "<nowiki><ref group="xtra">PMID:15068885</ref></nowiki>". If you type the PubMedID in this manner, the properly formatted reference will be created automatically wherever you place the necessary wikitext <nowiki>"<references group="xtra"/></nowiki>"". If you have a number of them to cite like this, putting all the additional references on one line eliminates excessive gaps in the page created when the items are hidden on the article page.<br> | |||
For example, the source,<br> | |||
<nowiki>Additional Literature and Resources</nowiki><br> | |||
<nowiki><ref group="xtra">PMID:15068885</ref><ref group="xtra">PMID:14749769</ref><ref group="xtra">PMID:1304880</ref></nowiki><br> | |||
<nowiki><references group="xtra"/></nowiki> | |||
will appear on the article page, as below:<br> | |||
<br> | |||
Additional Literature and Resources <ref group="xtra">PMID:15068885</ref><ref group="xtra">PMID:14749769</ref><ref group="xtra">PMID:1304880</ref> | |||
<references group="xtra"/> | |||
