+I have not found any other approach to build several wiki page with only one source file. Does someone have an idea?
+
+I also try to build a wiki-wide preprocessing of the source file to find reference to my bib entry (citation) but apparently there is no wiki-wide preprocessing hook allowing to collect data from each page before building the site. Do I miss something?

+
+What notation did you have in mind for citations? A preprocessor
+directive? Something LaTeX-inspired might be
+
+ \[[!cite key="foo"]]
+
+which would output "(Foo, 2008)". With the appropriate options, this
+could allow for several variations like "Foo (2008)" and "(Foo, 2008,
+p. 28)". A `nocite` option could cause the reference to be printed in
+the bibliography but produce no output.
+
+What about the references section? There are several ways to
+go about it, for example:
+
+1. It could be included at the bottom of the page automatically for
+ pages with references, with a configurable title and heading level
+ (e.g., `<h2>References</h2>`) followed by a list of references.
+
+2. Use another preprocessor directive like
+
+ ## References ##
+
+ \[[!bibliography ]]
+
+ or
+
+ \[[!bibliography title="References" headerlevel="2"]]
+
+ with configurable default values. Would it be tedious to do this on
+ every page?
+
+3. Use HTML::Template and allow users to add a bibliography section to
+ `page.tmpl` to include the bibliography if references are present and
+ loop over the references to emit a list. The downside here is having
+ to ask people to modify their templates (unless the plugin is
+ eventually included in the distribution).
+
+Any thoughts on the best way to proceed?
