Create proper and useful sources for everything you post. The things you post may include such as the following:
- Composers
- Lyricists
- Hymn publication dates
- Birth and death dates of hymnists
- Posted sheet music (or list yourself as the contributer, if you made it)
- Posted lyrics
You should include the full title, publication date, and hymn or page number of all sources: e.g. Hymns of Faith and Fortitude, 1909, no. 37
Make the source a link to an online copy of it, if available (such can often be found through Google Books or Openlibrary.org).
To create a source with footnotes, use the following tags to create a footnote linking to your source: <ref>Whatever your source is</ref>. Then, under a heading for references or footnotes (create one if there is none: i.e. =References= on its own line), put the following tag and nothing else: <references/>
Example
=Lyrics=
*Poet: FirstName LastName (year range), publication date<ref>publicationDateSourceTitle, dateOfSource, pageNumberOfSource</ref>
==Lyrics from [hymnalURL hymnalTitle, dateHymnalWasPublished, pageNumberOrHymnNumber]==
…
=References=
<references/>
