Help:Cite errors/Cite error references missing key
editHad an issue with listing an explanatory note, went to the help page as listed. It is deeply confusing and there is no step by step guide for how to fix it. It simply lists three examples and expects you to understand where you went wrong. It feels like it's designed for people who already have a deeper understanding of how to list an explanatory note, rather than stating exactly how to fix it.

- Basetornado, for basic information on the footnotes system, see Help:Referencing for beginners; for advanced help, see Help:Footnotes. —andrybak (talk) 16:55, 12 August 2024 (UTC)
- It's not really fit for purpose when the Help page that you are sent too, isn't the Help page and you have to go to another. Why not have them both on the exact same page? Basetornado (talk) 06:07, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
- It defeats the object if we put complicated stuff into a "for beginners" page. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 07:25, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
