-This looks good so far. A couple of notes:

-* It may be easier to start off with a simple example that does not use the cite template. For example: <nowiki><ref>http://forum.citizendium.org/ - Citizendium Forums</ref></nowiki>. Then introduce the idea of the cite template in the next section.
-* Personally I would put the "Single insertion of a reference" section before the "Multiple insertion of the same reference", as the former is the simpler case. I find it always best to start with the easiest things, and work up to the more complex things.

-* It may be worth mentioning that if there are a lot of references then <nowiki>{{reflist|2}}</nowiki> can be used.
-* I'm not sure on this, and it is a matter of personal taste, but we could split the article up into three different articles in order to simplify the process of the user finding exactly what they want. The first section could be an introduction to what references are, the second could be instructions on inserting the embedded inline references, and the third could be about using the cite template.
-Of course, all of these are just opinions and you don't have to follow them. --[[User:Chris Key|Chris Key]] 10:45, 1 August 2010 (UTC)
