IN TEXT - I would say "according to wikipedia's article about _______".
There is a way to cite down at the bottom of every page on wikipedia for your bibliography.
I hope I answered your question, but I was a bit unclear.
Good luck!
You might check out the MLA handbook for references to citing as well.

The trouble with Wikipedia is it's not always made from authorities in a special discipline (despite the fact that they is also stated or quoted), there are giant numbers of amateurs making giant contributions - know-how would possibly come from dozens of resources, no longer they all always secure. Wikipedia is a well location to begin to get a suppose for whatever however making use of it as a supply might be a mistake, in particular if the know-how you are bringing up immediately vanishes over night time after a purge via the moderators.

I usually go to the address bar, right click on it, copy it and transfer it to the place where I use it as a source citation

don't use wikipedia, it's not reliable. you can go in and change information about the article freely without it being checked!
