Glyptodont, I appreciate your eagerness to edit but you can learn from more experienced editors when an edit is reverted. There are many citation styles that can be used on Wikipedia so a common beginner's mistake is to edit or delete something that is unfamiliar to them. A citation with the author and the year is only needed when the book is listed at the bottom. When you don't understand why an edit has been reverted, you can start a conversation on the article's talk page or leave a message on the editor's talk page. Thank you.
