Reusing previous references[edit]
Hi @1234qwer1234qwer4:, do you know how to reuse previous references in an article? For example, this article currently has one reference if I want to use it again, but don’t want the same source to be listed twice, how can this be achieved? Thanks in advance, -Gifnk dlm 2020 (talk) 21:52, 17 August 2021 (UTC)
- @Gifnk dlm 2020 Hello, sorry for not noticing your message earlier. You can declare a reference with a name using
<ref name="NAME HERE">ref content</ref>and then reuse it like<ref name="NAME HERE />. 1234qwer1234qwer4 (talk) 20:55, 8 September 2021 (UTC)- @1234qwer1234qwer4:, Thank you very much! Since Middle English Wikipedia will likely be deleted soon I’m mostly concerned with preserving existing content but it’s always good to know. -Gifnk dlm 2020 (talk) 13:40, 9 September 2021 (UTC)
- No problem; this is universal syntax for all MediaWiki installations. 1234qwer1234qwer4 (talk) 13:50, 9 September 2021 (UTC)
