Citing your sources is the number one goal. Without citing, we can not be a realiable source for the information of the Battlestar Galactica universe. This section is not going to tell you when to cite, but how to cite. In the past few months, we came up with a way to standerize the way "cites" looked. So we imported templates from Wikipedia and edited them to fit our needs. All of the citation templates that we use are located at BW:CITETEM.

All the citation templates same way, but this tutorial is going to show you the most commonly used template, which is the {{cite web}} citation template.

{{cite web}}
