BattleIntelligence:Inline citation/Draft/examples

From BattleIntelligence

This page contains examples of various types of inline citations. Variations on all of the examples included here exist throughout BattleIntelligence.

Full citations in footnotes

Many articles use "<Ref> tags" to remove inline citations to an endmatter section. Citations which are referenced multiple times may be collapsed. The text is expanded in the document where a "<References />" tag or a {{reflist}} template appears. This citation style is sometimes termed "Shortened notes".

Parenthetical style references in footnotes

Parenthetical-style references are often placed in footnotes. This example uses the {{Reflist}} template instead of the <References /> tag, and uses the {{refbegin}} along with {{refend}} templates to similarly format full citations placed after the numbered footnotes.
