Is it appropriate to use {sfn |Smith |1960} and the ''loc'' field for all print material that is part of the book Smith 1960?

*Smith |1960 |loc=Back inside jacket
*Smith |1960 |loc=Foreword by Jones —"Foreword" by Jones? —Foreword (1985) by Jones?
The full citation, also in the article, may specify that Jones is the author of the foreword, but it seems reasonable to specify Jones in the short note. By default, I suppose, the publisher is the author of "jacket", "cover", "front endpapers", etc. --[[User:P64|P64]] ([[User talk:P64|talk]]) 17:34, 19 November 2011 (UTC)

The |ref=harv field

I've added |ref=harv to the twelve instances of {{cite book}} and similar. Prior to 07:17, 26 September 2009, if there was no |ref= field in such templates, an anchor would be created automatically as a suitable target for a link from the note dropped into {{reflist}}. Since then, with this edit to Template:Citation/core, anchor creation no longer occurs in the absence of |ref=, and so |ref=harv must now be explicitly provided for a suitable anchor to be created. --Redrose64 (talk) 21:37, 27 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

loc=

Is it appropriate to use {sfn |Smith |1960} and the loc field for all print material that is part of the book Smith 1960?

  • Smith |1960 |loc=Acknowledgments
  • Smith |1960 |loc=Back inside jacket
  • Smith |1960 |loc=Foreword by Jones —"Foreword" by Jones? —Foreword (1985) by Jones?

The full citation, also in the article, may specify that Jones is the author of the foreword, but it seems reasonable to specify Jones in the short note. By default, I suppose, the publisher is the author of "jacket", "cover", "front endpapers", etc. --P64 (talk) 17:34, 19 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
