References

Adding references and citations to the Sylheti Wikipedia, or any small wiki, is essential for maintaining the credibility and reliability of the content. While larger wikis might have dedicated gadgets and templates for citations, smaller wikis may not always have these tools readily available. Here's a simple way to add references using the tags:

1. Identify your source: First, make sure you have a reliable source for the information you want to cite. It could be a book, a website, a scholarly article, or any other credible reference.
2. Insert the citation: Within the article on the Sylheti Wikipedia, locate the point where you want to add a citation. Enclose the information you want to cite within the <ref> tags. For example: This is some information that needs a reference.<ref>Author, Title, Publication Date, URL, etc.</ref>
3. Create a list of references: At the end of your article or in a separate "References" section, list all your references. Use the following format for each reference:

== ꠟꠇ ==
<references/>

Or, alternatively you may use this template

{{ꠟꠇ}}

By following these steps, you'll add references and citations to the Sylheti Wikipedia using the tags, even if dedicated gadgets and templates are not readily available. This ensures that your content is verifiable and trustworthy.
