Someone suggested this on my blog. It's an *excellent* idea and needs a button added for it in the present Vector editor.

Re John Broughton’s idea for “a **single click** way of generating the standard text/code for a footnote”…
Would there be any way to make a nice little bookmarklet so people could drag a URL onto the button, and it would copy a wiki-citation to the clipboard?
Basically no
If you look at even [[Template:Cite web]] it requires stuff that you have to go hunting for (author).
You could construct something for popular websites (BBC say) which have a standard format.
