Dropping Refs Here For a Second...

 * Thanks for improving the article. However references in footnotes should have specific pages cited instead of page ranges. - Darwinek (talk) 11:35, 18 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Is this in reference to the journal articles listed, to the VanVechten text, or to both? I've never listed journal articles under a bibliography, with specific pages referenced in the references section (though I am willing to do this).  The argument is generally that journal articles are short enough that information is easily verifiable.  Strombollii (talk) 18:20, 18 February 2010 (UTC)
 * It relates only to the journal articles. I agree with your point, however it is much more transparent to cite specific pages, same as with the books. - Darwinek (talk) 18:36, 18 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Gotcha: will do. I asked over at Wikiproject Lit, but haven't gotten an answer yet: is there a Lit Manual of Style? Strombollii (talk) 19:03, 18 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks. I found only "Inline citations" section of WP:CITE, otherwise I am not aware if this issue is covered by the manual of style. - Darwinek (talk) 19:59, 18 February 2010 (UTC)

Gotcha. I was looking more for a guide to formatting/sections, etc, like WP: MEDMOS. I'll just structure it off of some of the Literature FAs. Strombollii (talk) 20:44, 18 February 2010 (UTC)

Help
Does anyone notice that this book appears to have the word "Nigger" written in the title?

For the curious, the person that started this thread did so as the sole action from a verizon business ip which appears to be in 'White Haven' PA. If you visit there, don't drink the water. 98.4.112.204 (talk) 05:32, 9 February 2023 (UTC)
