NovaRoma:Cite sources

Sources for historical facts - and Nova Roma events - should be cited.^[1]

Our citation method is to use the MediaWiki Cite extension.^[2].

How to use Cite

There are two steps involved:

1. put ref tags in the text where a footnote appears, surrounding the footnote text; it will be replaced with superscript numbers that link to the references section.
2. put a references tag somewhere else on the page, where the references should appear - generally this would be in a section called "References".

   This is some example text.  <ref>This is the footnote - it will not appear here, but rather at the end of the page.</ref>

   
    ==References===
    <references/>   This is where the references will appear, at the location of the '''references''' tag.
