How to cite refs in wiki syntax
Below is an edit mode view of adding "shortened notes" citations to an article:

The Sun is pretty big, but the Moon is not so big. The Sun is also quite hot. == Footnotes == == References == *Brown, R (2006). "Size of the Moon", Scientific American, 51(78). *Miller, E (2005). The Sun, Academic Press.

Below is how this would look once the edit was saved:

The Sun is pretty big,[1] but the Moon is not so big.[2] The Sun is also quite hot.[3]
