I know it can seem like something out of nowhere, but there's plenty of profiles with this right now, namely the entirety of this popular verse's cast and this guy, for example.

They seem nice and actually complement the stuff on pages by citing stuff behind whatever is on the page, however, surprisingly it hasn't been on the Standard Format for Character Profiles by now.

Meaning that now it's a good idea to start thinking of a way to implement it or something.
 
The Gray Boy and other Parahumans characters, as well as Zen'ō are other examples of the References section.

I agree with it being added as an optional section to the standard format pages.
 
Yeah, this seems like a good idea. Although it should probably be either you link the scan in a hyperlink, or you post a reference. Because both of them at the same time makes a page hard to read honestly.

And if there's an official free source where the chapter/episode/whatever is available, it should be linked in the reference section as is with Grey Boy.
 
Thank you for helping out. It is very appreciated.
 
Done. I also added a little bit more information on how to turn on source editor and updated the guide link to actually link to the References documentation.
 
Okay. Thank you for helping out. It is very appreciated.
