There is a "Cite" toolbar at the top of the edit window which allows you to automatically generate the required wiki code.

You click one of the templates, e.g. "book", and fill in the details.

More information can be found in Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners or the citations tutorial (the below video will play best in Firefox or Chrome):

Hope this helps,.

Hi, Miss giggly777! Welcome to Wikipedia!

Referencing on Wikipedia is a very confusing topic, I'm sorry. Wikipedia uses in-text citations to verify information. We ask for third party sources like newspapers. Once you've found the information in another source, put the source right next to the information in the article, surrounded by <ref> and </ref>.

If this isn't clear enough, you can find more information at Help:References. Or, if you'd rather speak to a live person, you can visit us in our help channel #wikipedia-en-help ^connect (click the green connect link).

Again, welcome to Wikipedia. I hope you enjoy your time editing here.
