Hello. There are a few ways to include a chapter of a book in a citation. You can use a full inline citation (i.e., &lt;ref> ... &lt;/ref>), or a short citation (i.e., sfn), or a harvc template embedded in &lt;ref> tags. The method you choose should conform to existing usage in the article. Here's an example of each, for a chapter by " " in a book called "" edited by. The top one is for an article with full citations inline:
 * – see WP:NAMEDREFS for how to create multiple citations to the same page/same chapter
 * – for short footnotes, linking to a full citation in the bottom matter

If your article uses short footnotes and has multiple citations to different chapters of the same book, you can cite them without any duplication of references by using short footnotes and the chapter citation template citec to link to the underlying cite book template for the book. To do this, just vary the loc param and page(s) as needed: and add one citec template for each unique chapter you wish to cite.
 * – page number(s) that verify the assertion in the article, not the entire chapter
 * – list loc and page(s) in another chapter of the same book

Here's an example using templates sfn and citec to link content in chapters of one book:





The template "see wikicode" feature is incomplete. For now, click [show] in the show/hide wikicode collapse bar, under heading "Linking to a chapter", to view the wikicode of the default example.

The combination of in and year provides the linkage from the short footnotes (superscript numbers in the article) to ⟶ citations (in the References section) to ⟶ the individual chapter (doubly-indented in "Works cited") to ⟶ the full book citation (above it).

In other words, considering footnote 1 we have: ⟶

The arrows represent a many-to-one relationship, that is: many sfns may link to one citec chapter citation, and many citec chapters may link to one cite book. If there are more individual chapters you want to refer to, just add one additional citec per chapter.
