Cite

Cite is a collection of extensions by Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason <avarab@gmail.com> that can be installed independently and operate independently of each other; the only thing that they have in common is that they improve citation support in one way or the other.

The extensions can be downloaded from the Cite directory in the extensions module in MediaWiki CVS HEAD. Cite.php requires hooks in the main MediaWiki code found in HEAD as of 2005-12-24 23:05:18Z[1]. SpecialCite.php likewise requires hooks found in CVS HEAD as of 2005-11-27 08:16:59Z[1].

Installation

To install the Cite extension from CVS, change to your MediaWiki installation directory and do the following:

cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@wikipedia.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/wikipedia/ login
cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@wikipedia.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/wikipedia/ co extensions/Cite

Edit the file LocalSettings.php and add a new line:

require_once( "extensions/Cite/Cite.php" );
