Perhaps this is cheating, and it seems to upset some people, but I basically
use Harvard Referencing within the <ref> templates, and give the full
citation in the ==References== section. So, within the wikitext, you have:
"Blah blah blah.<ref>Kilmer, pg. 7</ref> Blah blah." and at the
bottom of
the page you have the full information for Kilmer. This also makes it easier
to put in page numbers for books sources. The downside is that you can
sometimes get long lists of different page numbers for the same book, which
takes up space and looks somewhat messy, but I figure it's at the bottom of
the article anyway.

Do you have a solution? The only thing I can think of is putting all
the references at the beginning and then just putting <ref
name="foo"/> in the main text, but that would mean a big block of code
at the top of every page (or at least every page that is properly
sourced) and I'm not sure if it's possible to stop the top of each
page looking like a numberline.
Easy solution:
