Hi Jaap,
Try the edit view of the what is a wiki tutorial to see how the references are done.

I don't remember having a footnotes citing system available.
There is a template called {{UrlRef| url goes here}} that shows nothing on screen but creates a reference to the url when the page is printed to pdf.

Let me know if this helps.
A link to the extension page for the <ref> tag, has some better examples.
