==Description==
#REDIRECT [[OpenWetWare:Software/Extensions/Biblio]]
The [http://wikiomics.org/wiki/Biblio Biblio] extension for MediaWiki written by [[User:MartinJambon|Martin Jambon]] allows to define and cite bibliographic entries by their key. It also downloads bibliographic references from PubMed and formats them using only the PubMed identifier (PMID). Similarly, books can be cited using their ISBN. See [http://wikiomics.org/wiki/Biblio Biblio] page for installation instructions and an example of use. OpenWetWare is currently using version 0.7.
 
 
==How to use==
You can easily add citations by typing <font face="courier"><nowiki><cite>Goldbeter-PNAS-1981 Jacob-JMB-1961 Ptashne-Genetic-Switch</cite></nowiki></font> which gives <cite>Goldbeter-PNAS-1981 Jacob-JMB-1961 Ptashne-Genetic-Switch</cite>.
 
To insert a list of references type
 
<font face="courier"><nowiki><biblio></nowiki><br>
<nowiki>#Goldbeter-PNAS-1981 pmid=6947258</nowiki><br>
<nowiki>#Jacob-JMB-1961 pmid=13718526</nowiki><br>
<nowiki>#Ptashne-Genetic-Switch isbn=0879697164</nowiki><br>
<nowiki></biblio></nowiki></font>
 
which gives
 
<biblio>
#Goldbeter-PNAS-1981 pmid=6947258
#Jacob-JMB-1961 pmid=13718526
#Ptashne-Genetic-Switch isbn=0879697164
</biblio>
 
 
==Notes==
#Cite keys cannot contain either periods (.) or colons (:).  They can contain dashes.
#Some references, particularly old ones will yield references with odd formatting or absent information.  (See the Jacob 1961 reference above for an example).  This is due to the information in the relevant database (like Pubmed). If this bothers you, you can replace the pubmedid=xxxxx with a correctly formatted citation.
