Urgent--Citations

Let's fix the citations: "Publisher details, titles and authors are missing from many cites. Consistency should apply." We need to use the ((cite)) template with necessary parameters for all citations.– Lionel (talk) 21:40, 9 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hopefully, "consistency" means the way the cites appear on the article page, not whether they were all done using "cite templates". There's more than one way to skin a cat. --Kenatipo speak! 03:33, 10 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Agreed. I just thought using cite would be easier.– Lionel (talk) 10:07, 10 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Unfortunately, I'm like Donald -- I'm not experienced enough with them to use them efficiently, so, each one would take me a long time! --Kenatipo speak! 15:15, 10 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Consistency in citations: Retrieved date format

We're using 2 styles: November 10, 2011 and 2011-11-10. Let's vote on which one to use, then I will volunteer to make them all the same style. --Kenatipo speak! 16:27, 10 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

My preference is 2011-11-10 but I don't really care: as long as it's consistent. – Lionel (talk) 00:21, 11 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Retrieved dates in Bibliography

Biblio sections don't usually have "Retrieved dates". They look ugly. Can I remove them? --Kenatipo speak! 16:28, 10 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • That is fine with me. However, the Biblio section is not set up with HarvNb. I am not very proficient with HarvNb though I like the style. I think we should, perhaps, remove the Biblio section and deal with 'cite' formats. This is going to take several hours either way. DonaldRichardSands (talk) 19:59, 10 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Let's keep the Biblio section but rename it "Sources" and delete the extraneous info, like page numbers and retrieved dates. --Kenatipo speak! 20:15, 10 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Kenatipo is right on target. – Lionel (talk) 00:23, 11 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Have changed section name to Sources and removed retrieved dates. Not sure how to proceed with page numbers. Are we talking about the number of total pages in the work or the pages which provide specific documentation? DonaldRichardSands (talk) 00:41, 11 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Bibliography and HarvNb vs Cite Book, Journal, Web, etc

Hi,

I have standardized some citations to Cite Book, Journal, Web etc. Some of the citations not in my format style seem close enough to be accepted as such (any thoughts?). In my opinion, the big difference is with the Bibliography and the not in use HarvNb coexisting with the Cite format. Any thoughts? Do the two styles pose a problem? DonaldRichardSands (talk) 20:17, 10 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Jezhotwells is looking for "Publisher details, titles and authors are missing." The citations should be consistent, but let's not worry about it too much. Afterall, we have to save something for the FAC!!!!! Hahahah! – Lionel (talk) 00:26, 11 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
