Citation style
CaCO3,

Good question. I looked at the citations in your user subpage--you're doing them right, except you should put the text you want displayed in "References" inside the single brackets, one space after the citation url. Here's an example:

Body Paragraph

 * Barrick also operates the Porgera Gold Mine in Papua New Guinea. Porgera was acquired by Barrick in January 2006 when it succeeded in taking over Placer Dome.  The Porgera operation dumps cyanide-laced waste water into the local river stream which flows throughout the country and eventually ends up in the sea. The open pit mining method used since the early 1990's consists of  blasting the hills and using cyanide and other toxins to extract the gold. As the hills are destroyed, the erosion caused villagers homes to sink into the ground.

P.S.
Click "edit" to view the wiki markup (the computer code) for this style of citation--that way you can copy it from now on if you like.
