PROTIP:

To cite a source, use <ref>source</ref> and then add ==References== and then on the line below <references/> at the end of the article.

CITE YOUR DAMN SOURCES[citation needed]

We aren't as picky about citations as certain other wikis are[1] but it would be nice if you could cite your sources when referring to things like the emails, videos and comics. see http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Cite/Cite.php#Usage for how to cite sources using the "Cite" extension(which is installed).

Remember - only publicly available sources are acceptable to cite. PVCC posts, private audio recordings, media of dubious origins, etc. are not acceptable to cite.

References

  1. ↑ for an example look at pretty much any controversial article on Wikipedia
