Alternate text
If you would like to use alternate text on a link within the wiki, it is done like this:
Example:

Produces:

References
When you want to reference a source of information, it is done by creating a link to an external page, adding the date and name of the source after the link, and putting the whole thing between <ref> and </ref> tags. It is placed within the text of the article.
Example:
<ref>[http://www.sltrib.com/article Article Name] Salt Lake Tribune, 01-01-2015</ref>
This will add a small notation in the article's text and put a the full reference at the bottom of the page.
