Mechanics and positioning are important, no question. Practice your signals at home in the mirror, and study up on where you should be positioned in various situations. But, IMHO, you have to know the rules, first and foremost.

I have to side with cda in this debate. While people
should know the rules, they don't. Heck, I work with people on
VARSITY games all the time who don't know how to administer a number of things. But they can get those games because they know where to stand, what signal to give, how to report fouls, and can handle coaches and players.
Looking like you know what you're doing seems to be far more important than actually knowing what you're doing.
