How new cites will improve this list

Hello, all,

A perusal of the References and Bibliography to this article shows a considerable possibility of confusion by either editor(s) or readers. A small coterie of aviation historians have written a series of useful books with near-identical titles. The present cites listing sources are rendered well-nigh useless by this duplication. To add to the chaos, cites for the same book are repeated in stupefying quantities to cite the page(s) for each ace's listing.

I propose to revamp the Reference section by swapping in multi-refs telling users to look for the individual ace under his listing in alphabetic order by last name within the verifying text. I foresee the end result will be a much shorter, much more functional, and more elegant Reference section.

I also propose to relist the Bibliography by book title rather than author name to allay confusion there.

When done, I believe this list will be a great deal more user friendly.

Imported new version from sand box. Citations have been simplified for user friendliness. Redundant links from list have been pared to reduce browser loading time. Duplicatory information on Aerial victory standards of World War I has been removed. Entire article has been completely cited, and an illustration of the most famous ace on list added.
