///Citations on in-universe pages
User:SOTO/Forum Archive/The Time Lord Academy/@comment-1432718-20150321154947 I actually wanted to talk about something else this week, but I've recently encountered some editing behavior that needs fixing. In particular, when multiple sources are referenced in one paragraph, some editors are lumping all the sources at the end of the paragraph. Look at the following two examples:
the right way to cite:
- The Fifth Doctor played cricket, (TV: Black Orchid) but he also occasionally handed out jelly babies (AUDIO: The Roof of the World) and wore glasses for which he had no medical need. (TV: Time Crash)
the wrong way to cite:
- The Fifth Doctor played cricket, but he also occasionally handed out jelly babies and wore glasses for which he had no medical need. (TV: Black Orchid, Time Crash; AUDIO: The Roof of the World)
As stated at Tardis:Citation, "In the bad example, readers won't know which thing happened in which story. The good example makes that clear by putting each citation closer to the relevant factoid."
Please see Tardis:Citation for more details on the proper citation of references.
