This template will automatically format references. Copy and paste the template below...

{{FormatRef|Author|Year|Title|Journal|Page|Publisher}}

...and replace each word with whatever you need, if you don't need one just delete the word (but keep the pipe). So this:

{{FormatRef|Elowitz and Leibler|2000|A Synthetic Oscillatory Network of Transcriptional Regulators|Nature 403(6767)|335-8|}}

will show up as this:

Elowitz & Leibler (2000) A Synthetic Oscillatory Network of Transcriptional Regulators - Nature 403(6767) 335-8.

with no publisher because that field was left blank. There might be problems leaving stuff out (punctuation or whatever still appearing) but I can fix them later if they arise.

You may wish to use this with the Reference Template I made which lets you put in-line citations into text that link to any section called "References" on the page.
