@Mrjohncummings I've found a more or less complete tour for references waiting to go on test Wikidata - https://test.wikidata.org/w/index.php?title=Q1027&tour=wbreferences

It has a wiki page here with the content: https://test.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Tours/References

Had you seen that already? or do we need to reconcile with your new version to take the best of both?

@NavinoEvans yes, I've been updating this one on normal Wikidata (the one on test Wikidata is really out of date now), its still needs some work and maybe a new section so hold fire on this one for now

https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Tours/References

There are two in my done pile that are ready to go, one for administrative territories and one for official websites

@Mrjohncummings this tour is now ready on test wikidata (https://test.wikidata.org/w/index.php?title=Q211911&tour=wbreferences2). I had to fix a few things with the slide order and headings in the wiki text, so if you want to carry on editing that make sure to do it from my test version (https://test.wikidata.org/wiki/User:NavinoEvans/tours/references)

As with all the versions on test wikidata, any text within slides that relies on P or Q numbers will be mangled, but will all sort out automatically on live Wikidata. Also as mentioned, the reference URL attaching will be a bit funny because of the different UI on test wikidata - the best thing to do is click the "manual" tab when you get to adding a reference as this is then similar to live wikidata.

p.s. I'll wait until tomorrow before I start moving everything over to live, just to give people a chance to feedback on T244994: Wikidata tours: Reconcile versions of MediaWiki:Guidedtour-lib.js, but will make sure it's all up and running by early afternoon
