There are many [[:Category:Citation templates|citation templates]] for different media, sites, and even specific sources that are frequently cited. Most sources will probably be cited with [[Template:cite web]] and derivatives, [[Template:cite pu]], and [[Template:cite ku]].
 
Miraheze currently doesn't support Citoid, which automatically handles citation formatting on sites like Wikipedia. Instead, you can use an external tool, such as:
* [https://citer.toolforge.org/ Citer] (simplest to use)
* [https://refill.toolforge.org/ng/ reFill NG] (good for mass conversion; add a dummy title, click "Use custom wikicode", paste links within <code><nowiki><ref></ref></nowiki></code> tags)
* See more at [[wikipedia:Help:Citation tools]]

This is especially necessary for Discord uploads; unarchived links will start to expire so that the files can only be accessed through Discord, which requires knowing where it was originally uploaded. {{Indent|
