Using citations

Not recommended for the WISE documentation

Citations are similar to footnotes, but have a label that is not numeric or does not begin with #.

When the documentation is built using the Sphinx document generator, the citations are “global”, meaning that every citation can be referenced from any .rst files. In this case, a separate file may be created (e.g., a references.rst file).
