Summary
Review of what you've learned

Sometimes you may want to cite the same reference to in multiple places on a page.
In this case, when you click the button, select the "⧼visualeditor-dialog-reference-useexisting-tool⧽" tab. This will display a list of all the references currently used in the article.
To find the reference you want to re-use, either scroll through the list, or use the "⧼visualeditor-reference-input-placeholder⧽" bar at the top. Clicking on the reference will insert it into the article.
