This might work or not. Here is a sentence which contains a ref tag<ref> http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Cite/Cite.php</ref> to display a footnote. This is probably what THorsten wants in terms of format. Max started using it but for some reason it does not work. Is it because we are mixing old and new styles or because our mediawiki instance does not have the cite.php module activated?

Oisin "Ush" Feeley

Professionally I'm a GNU/Linux sysadmin for a plethora of small businesses (supporting mostly Fedora and CentOS in the usual heterogeneous environment). I've been using Red Hat Linux since 2.0 and Fedora since Core 1 (Yarrow) and am a RHCE. I work occasionally as a technical writer. I used to be a geneticist and evolutionary biologist and first encountered GNU/Linux as a development environment for coding in C (I had previously been using Borland on Win 3.<something>) and the joy of moving to emacs is still something which I remember).

Useful Links

Some of the older links floating around which concerned editing the wiki may only be useful for MoinMoin. As everything has now moved to MediaWiki it is best to follow the WikiEditing link as a starting point to learn how to do things.

Technical terms re MediaWiki

to markup footnotes in mediawiki

Testing references

This might work or not. Here is a sentence which contains a ref tag[1] to display a footnote. This is probably what THorsten wants in terms of format. Max started using it but for some reason it does not work. Is it because we are mixing old and new styles or because our mediawiki instance does not have the cite.php module activated?
