References

Every article must have at least one verifiable and reliable reference. Articles describing a topic entirely from first-hand experience, where no documentation is known or likely to exist, qualify as original research, which is not allowed.
References should be in a "References" section.
Direct quotes, especially from living people, should always be specifically cited to a source.
Citations may be in any style, but Cite.php footnotes are most typical in music articles on Wikipedia.
