There are many accepted ways to create a reference or source for a citation. Many sources in the reference section of Wiki pages follow ''The Chicago Manual of Style,'' but other forms are acceptable. 
===Website References - Formatting ===
When adding a reference to information within a Wiki article in a bibliographic list or in the reference section, you can use the following formats:<br>
<br>
''Elements required:''<br>
<nowiki><ref>AUTHOR, "ARTICLE NAME," REPOSITORY, URL, accessed ACCESSDATE.</ref></nowiki>
<br><br>
''Website Example 1:''<br>
Wikipedia contributors, "Chile," in ''Wikipedia: the Free Encyclopedia'', https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chile, accessed 24 March 2016. <br>

=== References Heading ===
Add a heading 2 or heading 3 (whichever is more appropriate for the page) named '''References''' as the last header on the page; i.e. at the bottom of the page <u>before</u> the NAVBOX and Category templates.  The '''reference list''' tag is added below the header in the following format:<br>

*Please refer to the links below for guidance on adding this information:<br>
:*[[FamilySearch_Wiki:Manual_of_Style-Formatting#Books Online - Create URL for FamilySearch Digital Books and Other Websites|Online Books]]
:*[[Help:WorldCat_Templates|WorldCat reference]]
:*[[FamilySearch_Wiki:Manual_of_Style-Formatting#Books Not Online - FamilySearch Catalog Using FSC Template|Call number information (book and microfilm)]]
<br>
''Elements Required:''<br>
<nowiki> <ref>Author(s), ''Title'' (Place of publication: Publisher, year of publication), volume: page number(s). (Accessed date).</ref></nowiki><br>

'''Additional Formatting Guidelines:'''<br>
*Capitalize the complete title.<br>
*If the title is really long, give the first portion of the title and shorten the title.<br>

:*Brown, John, Peter A. Smith, and Sarah R. White, ''Books Are Cool'' (San Diego, California: Books, Inc., 2002), 13. (Accessed 1 May 2020).
*If there is ever information missing use the following guidelines:
**Missing author: leave it blank and move on to the publisher information.
**Missing publication date: use n.d.
**Missing publication place: use n.p.
**Missing publisher: use n.p.
''Example of no author, no date of publication, no place of publication, and no publisher information:''<br>
