Help:Cite errors/Cite error ref no input

This page will help you to fix the cite error message:

Cite error: There are <ref> tags on this page without content in them (see the help page).

Overview

Further information: Help:Footnotes

References are defined within <ref> tags.

Issues and resolution

  • There is no content between the <ref> tags, and the reference has no name. Either delete the two tags, or put content between them, for example: <ref>content</ref>; or, if you're reusing a named reference that's been defined elsewhere in the article use a single tag, for example <ref name="refname" />
  • There is an = (equals sign) in an explanatory footnote: {{efn|Explanatory footnote with = sign}}. Unnamed template parameters cannot contain an equals sign. To solve this issue, start the parameter with |1= like this: {{efn|1=Explanatory footnote with = sign}}

Examples

In this example, there is no content within the first set of <ref> tags: 

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.<ref></ref> Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat.<ref>Reference 2</ref> Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur. Excepteur sint occaecat cupidatat non proident, sunt in culpa qui officia deserunt mollit anim id est laborum.<ref>Reference 3</ref> Curabitur pretium tincidunt lacus. Nulla gravida orci a odio. Nullam varius, turpis et commodo pharetra, est eros bibendum elit, nec luctus magna felis sollicitudin mauris. Integer in mauris eu nibh euismod gravida.
