Description

I currently manually add citations to my articles and pages, it would be nice to have a button in the wysiwyg editor to add them in, style of course being customisable by the user - *, [number] (a la wikipedia) or even an image.

TinyMCE actually has a 'cite' button that we currently don't include. It is part of the 'xhtmlxtras' plugin and is called 'cite'.

The site button in TinyMCE doesn't actually do what the ticket requests, it just allows easy manipulation of the <cite> html tag - It doesn't allow for a list of references at the end of the page etc like wikipedia.

Maybe the editor lib could parse our cite tags, and generate this automatically at the bottom? I doubt we would make this functionality configurable, reason being is those that want to use cite really already know what it is, and this would be a good added feature. Thoughts?

That could work. I was thinking add it in client side with js so the user knows what's going to happen before they submit it rather than adding it server side then leaving them wondering where it came from, seems a nicer option to me.
