This task covers adding a "References added" count to the [[ https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Growth/Positive_reinforcement#Impact_3 | Impact module ]]. ####User story & summary: - As an **experienced editor**, I want the Impact module to reflect the policies and values of the wikis—specifically, that adding references is a core part of contributing high-quality content. - As a **newcomer**, I want to see how many references I’ve added to Wikipedia articles, so I can better understand that Wikipedia values verifiable accuracy and citing reliable, authoritative sources. - As a **librarian** participating in the 1Lib1Ref campaign, I want a visible count of references I’ve added in the Impact module, so I can track my contributions and share the impact of my work. #### Background: Verifiability and citing reliable sources are foundational to Wikipedia: >All articles must strive for verifiable accuracy with citations based on reliable sources [[ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Five_pillars | Wikipedia:Five_pillars ]] > Among standard quality indicators, the number of references has the greatest effect—more references are associated with a lower probability of deletion.
