Citation Syntax[edit]

The way that citations work for books is like this {{book ref|book name|chapter number}} for book name, you use shorthand, for Nightmare Painter, it is just yumi. For WoBs, it is {{wob ref|wob number}}. Wob number is easy to find, it is just the number at the end of the link, so for https://wob.coppermind.net/events/516/#e16156, it is {{wob ref|16156}}. For Epigraphs, it is {{epigraph ref|book name|chapter}}. Hope this helps. Firesong (talk) 17:53, July 11th 2023 (UTC)

For easy reference, the shorthands for all the books names are listed at Template:B. More details on how to cite things are available at Help:References. And of course, please do ask (either on a talk page or our Discord) if you have any questions. Aside, @Firesong, thanks for explaining; I did tweak your template syntax examples to use Template:T so that we're not leaving unclosed templates on the page
