Named reference

I'm editing a small article that needs better citations. A reference cited early in the article ought to be cited again later on. It was not originally given a "ref name" so I tried to add <ref name="[ref name]"> at the beginning of its reference. The hope is that this would allow me to use a "Named reference" in the ref list, but now I'm getting citation error problems. I'm going back to copy/paste the whole reference, but I'd like to know how add ref names to existing references from time to time if possible -- and can't find instructions about updating existing references such as I describe.

Thanks, GeeBee60 (talk) 00:53, 5 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Neeever mind, I figured it out. (wheee!) FYI: <ref name= ...> begins a reference the same as <ref> except the reference name is added, I misread the coding thought I needed both <ref name ...> and <ref>, I didn't. GeeBee60 (talk) 03:58, 5 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
