Trouble Cube Roleplay Wiki:Referencing

This is a wiki about amateur roleplaying. You don't need to cite your sources. However, you might want to, just so people have some context for what you're talking about. Here's a guide on that.

How To

Just wrap a link to the thing you're referencing in <ref> </ref> tags.

Mediawiki automatically generates a list of references at the end of the page, so strictly speaking there's nothing more you need to do, though you should probably put a "References" header at the bottom of the page; it definitely looks better that way.

Source Preference Ranking

1. A direct link to a particular post in the article topic's thread.
2. An external document established to be canon (such as by inclusion in a thread sign-up)
3. A direct link to a post in a different thread than the page topic.
4. Just the name of the thread the fact was established in (if you can't find any particular post)
5. A phrase to the effect of "Private Discord roleplay", if the information has yet to be established publicly.

If you see a less-preferred source and are able to replace it with a more-preferred source, do so. Do not cite other pages on TCRP Wiki. In fact, don't cite any wiki pages -- not Murderverse Wiki, not TVTropes, none of 'em, they're all too ephemeral.

Do not delete information just for lacking a source.
