Remember to include the punctuation marks present in the formats.

This format was already in place when I joined, and allow the preservation of some info in case a VTuber erases content, an advantage to other kind of formats that become useless as references the moment the media is erased, as even with dead links you can still get a bit of info if you are willing to look into them. It is more time consuming but it is worth it.

I advise you to always mention official sources, they are the best to get info, if you can, it is ok to add a translation as long as it is faithful but it is not mandatory, don't put two links in the same reference tab, put them separated but together, people understand they are related and will click them if interested.

As the wiki is still in development, you might come across other formats, as the wiki has A LOT of articles, you can use the format present in specific pages for consistency sake. If you want to add a reference in an article that doesn't have any, I suggest you to use the formats above for the advantages I already mentioned. Hope this helps!
