Another very popular extension is a citation extension that enables footnotes to be added to pages using inline references.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Cite |title=Extension:Cite |publisher=MediaWiki |date=May 3, 2010 |access-date=May 30, 2010 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141020220333/https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Cite |archive-date=October 20, 2014 |url-status=live  }}</ref> This extension has, however, been criticized for being difficult to use and requiring the user to memorize complex syntax.
