Line 37:

This special section should always be the very last section of an article. It automatically collects and formats all references noted in the article. Therefore, the References section needs a special tag '''<nowiki><references/></nowiki>'''. In the IntactiWiki, please use the [[:Template:REF]] instead, which simply outputs the two required lines: the section headline (References) plus the references tag. So you just type '''<nowiki>{{REF}}</nowiki>''' at the beginning of a line.

== Categories ==

'''Note:''' In general, the References section is the very last section of each article. This is an exception to the rule, because the categories are shown below the article itself. You simply assign categories to your article by using the same formatting as with normal internal article links, using double square brackets. Here is an example:

<pre>[[Category:MyTest]]</pre>

You can create any category as you like to, but you may want to [[Special:Categories|check out existing categories]] first, to avoid duplicates and nonsense categories. If a category has no category heading text already, it will be shown in red, like our example does.

[[Category:MyTest]]
