==Some more thoughts==
Having edited[1] quite a few documents on Wikipedia, I have to put in abid for a standardised way on including references within a wiki. Thisought to be something simple ??How not to create a standard byM.S.Wolf??.

(1) How not to create a standard by M.S.Wolf.

Wikipediauses a system that is far from fathomable. At the point of citation inthe main text, enter the reference or footnote like this:
{{{ <ref>Excel For Dummies, First Edition, Hungry Minds, Inc., 1980.</ref> }}}
To cite the same reference or footnote several times, identify it using the name parameter of the <ref> tag:
{{{ <ref name="Perry">Perry's Handbook, Sixth Edition, McGraw-Hill Co., 1984.</ref> }}}
Then, at all the other citation points just enter:
{{{ <ref name="Perry"/> }}}
Atthe point where you want the text of the footnotes or references toappear (usually at the end of the article in a "Notes" or "References"section), insert the tag:
{{{ <references/> }}}
Which produces a list:
# ^ Wiki For Dummies, First Edition, Hungry Minds, Inc., 1980.
# ^ Excel For Dummies, First Edition, Hungry Minds, Inc., 1980.
Personally, I would refer something like
This is second [2] reference the first being on the top line to show the link, this is the third[3] reference
Alot of text ....A lot of text ....A lot of text ....A lot of text ....Alot of text ....A lot of text ....A lot of text ....A lot of text ....Alot of text ....A lot of text ....A lot of text ....A lot of text ....Alot of text ....A lot of text ....A lot of text ....A lot of text ....Alot of text ....A lot of text ....A lot of text ....A lot of text ....Alot of text ....A lot of text ....A lot of text ....A lot of text ....Alot of text ....A lot of text ....A lot of text ....A lot of text
* [#1] This first reference info, Hungry Minds, Inc., 1980.]
* [#2] The second reference info, Hound dog deniers Inc., 1580.]
* [#3] The third reference info,1180.]
Whichis exactly what this wiki[http://www.jspwiki.org/wiki/TextFormattingRules#ref-TextFormattingRules-1]does with the following reproduced text :-
{{{This is second [2] reference the first being on the top line to show the link, this is the third[3] reference
A lot of text ....
* [#1] This first reference info, Hungry Minds, Inc., 1980.]
* [#2] The second reference info, Hound dog deniers Inc., 1580.]
* [#3] The third reference info,1180.] }}}==Some more thoughts==

After all this I quite like the {{{[*footnote]}}} and {{{[#reference]}}} style but there is nowhere to put the label, so how about if {{{[*footnote]}}} requries a label use the syntax:-
After all this I quite like the {{{[*footnote]}}} and {{{[#reference]}}} style but there is nowhere to put the label, and [#text] is already used for internal references, so how about {{{[**footnote]}}} and if it requries a label use the syntax:-
