Overview
This page is a guide to adding footnotes (also called "citations", "inline citations" or "references") when the citoid service has been configured for your wiki.

Citoid is a service that automatically creates a citation template given a URL, DOI, ISBN, PMID, PMCID or QID. It has a companion extension, Citoid, which makes use of VisualEditor's Citation Tool to provide the citoid service to VisualEditor.

Add a new reference
Click on the "Cite" button in the toolbar. This will open a dialog box with three tabs: Automatic, Manual, and Re-use.

Manual
There are two ways to add footnotes from the Manual tab - using a standard template, or using the basic template.
