Questions
How to manage bibliography?
Two additional tags <cite> and <biblio> are used respectively to cite bibliographic entries by their key, and to define bibliographic entries. They automatically take care of the numbering and sorting of the references. For details, please refer to http://martin.jambon.free.fr/biblio_php.html.
Example:
Input:
Two citations <cite>Quinlan_94</cite> and <cite>Smith_06</cite>.
<biblio>
#Quinlan_94 Quinlan. C4.5: Programs for Machine Learning. 1994
#Smith_06 John Smith. A fast way to ceate a wiki page. Information Science Journal 10(2), pages 345--350. 2006
</biblio>
Output:
Two citations [1] and [2].
- Quinlan. C4.5: Programs for Machine Learning. 1994
- John Smith. A fast way to ceate a wiki page. Information Science Journal 10(2), pages 345--350. 2006

Can I use Latex?
Latex Rendering is NOT working properly now. It is suggested that you surround your Latex equations with <math> </math> though. i.e. <math>\sqrt{x^2 + y^2}</math>. After we have fixed the Latex rendering problem, your equation will be automatically converted to png pictures. It is also convenient to use special characters defined by Wiki itself. Check http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Editing#Special_characters for more details. --Kun Liu 15:31, 18 April 2006 (EDT)
