How to do basic two-way links in Wikipedia
A lot of different traditions how to cite properly exist and are used extensively in Wikipedia. Some rather popular ones use citations without hyperlinks. This means that clicking through hyperlinked associations is unnecessarily clumsy, because readers need to scroll manually to find references, instead of just clicking back and forth.

The original HTML  anchor is the universal source and destination of hyperlinks; in essence, it is the raison d' être of the entire WWW, and has been described in the very document that started it all.[Berners-Lee 1990]

So, I'm trying to insert HTML anchors with no extras into web pages generated by wikipedia.

Can I straightforwardly insert (Berners-Lee 1990) to implement doubly linked parenthetical referencing?

Not quite; I'll have to use template:anchor that mimics it.
