Citations

[edit]

I've moved the book to an inline citation for now - it is only being used once so there's no need for an alternative section for it. I've also reverted references back per CITEVAR and DATEVAR. If the article is re-written then whoever does so is more than welcome to do whatever they want to the citation style - assuming a significant number of citations are introduced. I've no problem with that and won't get precious about CITEVAR if that happens. To change two and leave the others as they are is, however, not really on - especially as it seems it will be more than a little while before anything's done here.

Absolute rubbish. You clearly have no idea what a bibliography section is for. Or a further reading section for that matter. Reverted. See your own talk page. As for citations, learn how to use cite web, cite book, etc. I despair. Jack | talk page 01:00, 18 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Per CITEVAR and DATEVAR I'll move things back so that they match for now - nothing will get done on this for months at least and the article is a mess in its current state with multiple date and reference styles. CITEVAR also makes it very clear that no one is required to use citation templates and that normal referencing is absolutely acceptable. If it ever gets developed properly then anyone should feel free to adopt their preferred style. Blue Square Thing (talk) 21:53, 30 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
