# How to Find Sources and References with ChatGPT

ChatGPT transforms Wikipedia lookups into polished briefings tailored to your specific needs and audience. Ask about any topic and receive a clear, well-organized summary at the level of detail you specify -- from a one-paragraph fact check to a comprehensive background report with timelines, key figures, and significance context. The natural conversation format makes it easy to adjust scope on the fly, going broader for context or deeper into subtopics based on what you learn as the briefing develops.

## Setup

{"mcpServers":{"toolrouter":{"command":"npx","args":["-y","toolrouter-mcp"]}}}

## Steps

1. Configure ToolRouter in ChatGPT
2. Ask: "Get the full Wikipedia article on machine learning and list all references using wikipedia-lookup"
3. ChatGPT retrieves the article and extracts citations
4. Request: "Format these as an APA bibliography"
5. ChatGPT provides a properly formatted reference list

## Example Prompt

```
I need sources for a paper on renewable energy economics. Pull the Wikipedia article and extract all cited academic papers and reports.
```

## Tips

- ChatGPT can format references in APA, MLA, Chicago, or any citation style
- Ask for a categorized bibliography sorted by relevance to your topic
- Request direct links to cited papers and reports when available
