Many wikis use templates to format references. If a template is used in your reference, then all the text in the template will be highlighted when you click on the reference information.

If a template was used and you've clicked on information in that template, then the icon (puzzle piece) will appear. Click on that icon to edit the content of the template in the template mini-editor dialog.

Adding a new reference
Clicking on the Cite menu opens a dialog box with three tabs: Automatic, Manual, and Re-use

Manual


There are two types of footnotes that can be added from the Manual tab - using a standard template, or using the basic template.

Using standard cite templates

 * Your local wiki may have added extra citation templates to this menu. This offers quick access to the most-used citation templates. (Instructions for adding extra citation templates to your local wiki are available at VisualEditor/Citation tool.)
 * colspan=2 |
 * VisualEditor - Editing references - Cite book required fields.png
 * Clicking on a template icon such as "Cite book" will take you into the template mini-editor for that template. Important information fields may be marked with an asterisk. While the most common fields will be shown, not all of them are required.
