Handling citations

This wiki offers several tools to help handling citations to/from wiki pages, as well as building scientific bibliographies.

  • To see a list of already defined bibliographies and/or add a new one, browse to Special:Bibliography special page.
  • To add references and footnotes in your pages, use the <ref> </ref> syntax.
    • See here for detailed instructions.
  • If you want to cite a particular page on this wiki, click on the "Cite this page" link in the toolbox on page's left.
    • Or, go to Special:Cite and insert the name of a page you would like to cite.

Inserting mathematical formulas

To insert mathematical formulas, follow this guide.

Interwiki links

If you need to link a page on an external wiki (like Wikipedia), you could use one of the defined interwiki link abbreviations (for example, for linking the "Sunflower" page on Wikipedia, simply write: [[wikipedia:Sunflower|big yellow flower]]; more on this on mw:Help:Links#Interwiki links). Many, but not all the existing wikis have a corresponding prefix: however, if you find a new useful prefix and would like to have it included among those available, simply ask the wiki admins to do so.
