ProcessCite.php is an extension to Cite.php.  It
- makes it easier to add citations to the biomedical literature by  
fetching reference info based on PMID from PubMed
- allows storing lists of shortcuts|references in a wiki page  
(default is "$wgSitename Reference Library")
- makes the reference style consistent - using a style I arbitrarily  
chose ;) -
- disambiguates some different ways to make a citation.

ProcessCite.php requires adding a hook to Cite.php.  I've requested  
the addition of this hook on bugzilla

To see ProcessCite in action, see:

Hope this is useful to someone and that the real programmers can help  
me make it better!
