Welcome!

Hello, Hlerner02, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with Wiki Education; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

Referencing the same source multiple times in a single article.

Hi, thank you for your contributions to Jewish Deli. I noticed that you were duplicating references on that page. If you are going to reference the same source multiple times, Wikipedia allows you to name those sources so you can just refer to a source named "foo" rather than having to recreate all of the details about the citation (the author, the title, etc.) over and over. The name is created like this:

<ref name="foo">content</ref>

Then, to invoke that footnote you have named foo, just type this:

<ref name="foo" />

The content (the details of the citation) of the reference that has been named "foo" is thus defined only once but can be reused over and over. Dazzling4 (talk) 15:42, 17 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
