When & How to Use Citations

Note: Not every citation on this wiki follows these protocols due to there are lot of citations and I'm only just finalizing these now

You should use citations anything you are sourcing something that provides the information especially when the source is obscure or specific. This includes Episodes and Novels.

Whenever you cite an Epithet Erased episode link to this wiki article, formatted like so:

[[Epithet Erased]] | [<link to article> EP<ep #> - <episode title>]

And the citation should be name "EP<ep #>"

There is also a version of this for a whole section with out sections. Citation Needed
