Not all information on the wiki needs to have a reference. However, the more difficult it is to find a piece of information in the game, the more likely it is that it needs references.
Not all information on the wiki needs to have a reference. However, the more difficult it is to find a piece of information in the game, the more likely it is that it needs references.


To add references, use the {{code|<nowiki><ref></nowiki>}} ... {{code|<nowiki></ref></nowiki>}} tag. If there is no References section at the end of the article, add it, and add the <nowiki><references/></nowiki> tag as the only content in that section.
== How to add references ==
Use the template [[Template:Cite]] to add references to pages, and add the template [[Template:Reflist]] at the bottom of the page to list references. See the respective pages for further instructions.


If you come across information on the wiki without references, or if you don't believe the references are sufficient, you can request verification by adding the [[Template:Verify|verify]] template ({{code|<nowiki>{{Verify}}</nowiki>}}) after the sentence or paragraph with the potentially incorrect information. Do not remove information unless you know it to be incorrect – take it to the Talk Page instead.
To add simple references on simple pages, use the  tags <nowiki><ref></nowiki>}} ... {{code|<nowiki></ref> to add a reference, and the tag <nowiki><references/></nowiki> in its own References section to list any references.
