Was there a reason for this edit? Thank you. Magnolia677 (talk) 18:51, 31 July 2023 (UTC)


 * Yes, thank you for your concern. The reason is that the citations need to be complete and consistent. Before there were missing page numbers and some book citations were sfn and others were not. As I understand, sfn citations are preferred for Featured articles and so it is better to have all books use the sfn format. Hope this helps! CleLibrarian (talk) 20:27, 31 July 2023 (UTC)
 * I reverted your edit again at Cleveland. Please do not change or mix referencing styles, per WP:INTREF2 and WP:IC. Magnolia677 (talk) 21:56, 31 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Again, I understand your concern, but books can be cited as sfns as opposed to other types of sources. The Featured article on Boston follows this format. And page numbers need to be added for certain books to be verified. CleLibrarian (talk) 22:12, 31 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Your edit warring is disruptive. I'm cautioning you to please revert your edit and discuss on the article talk page. Magnolia677 (talk) 22:45, 31 July 2023 (UTC)
 * I will revert the new format, but keep the added page numbers and sources. CleLibrarian (talk) 22:56, 31 July 2023 (UTC)
