This is a good idea - but it is not part of the GEDCOM specification.
It has been discussed for inclusion in a future version. e.g. https://github.com/FamilySearch/GEDCOM/issues/455
When it is part of the standard, I will include it in webtrees.
Until GEDCOM normalizes the Source_Citation someone could write a module that adds a citation to a set of specific INDI.
Hello
Since "proofs" on an event or a fact comes from the "Citation" of a "Source" (witch is "stored" in a repository), it would be nice to to consider them as specific "object" linked to "Source", because a citation of a source is often the same for many events.
Example (in french) :
In "Acte de mariage de DUPONT X MARCHAND" we found (in braces events that should be attached to the same citation):
This citation could be "attached" to more than 20 events.
I took a marriage as an example, but it also happens with many kind of documents :
So when, later, adding any information about a citation, (eg. : enter TEXT, not NOTE, from the digital version of the document, or its translation) would require only one modification, and not as much as there are event linked to "Source".
Or do I missed something about Citations in Webtrees ?
