References are sources used to prove information. Our policy here on the Nintendo Wiki is that references aren't required except for controversial edits (ex. Information about a just announced console or game). References can be either text, links, or both. Text references would generally only be used to use a quote(s) as a source. Whenever you add a source you should put it directly after the sentence or text that it applies to. Note: For every source that is repeated you do not have to put anything between the "" tags, you just have to make sure that it has the correct source name.
