:{{replyto|ElizaJRich}} Assuming that you mean [[Japanese Lantern (Boston)]], you need to put the reference after the text that it supports, and not in the References section. See [[Help:Referencing for beginners]]. By the way, this is not a good place to ask for help - it is the [[Help:Talk pages|talk page]] for discussing improvements to the page [[:Help:Cite errors]]. Better places would be [[Wikipedia:Teahouse]] or [[Wikipedia:Help desk]]. --[[User:Redrose64|<span style="color:#a80000; background:#ffeeee; text-decoration:inherit">Red</span>rose64]] &#x1f339; ([[User talk:Redrose64|talk]]) 20:51, 1 May 2025 (UTC)
::Thanks for your help. I read the instructions for beginners again and used only the superscripts, but now they don't show in the References list. I will try the Help Desk. Thanks for your efforts to improve the documentation, which is complex for an occasional user who is just trying to rectify the record.
