Opening post

Just a quick forum here: I want to change the current way parts are stylised in {{cite source}}.

Currently, we cite specific parts in sources like this:

(AUDIO: Project Twilight (part one) ^[+]Loading...{"part":"One","1":"Project Twilight (audio story)"})

Which, while it does get the information across, feels... inelegant to me. So I have a few solutions.

So here are a few different versions I've knocked up that convey the same information, but just stylise it differently.

(AUDIO Project Twilight: Part 1 ^[+]Loading...["Project Twilight (audio story)","''Project Twilight'': Part 1"])
(AUDIO Project Twilight: Part One ^[+]Loading...["Project Twilight (audio story)","''Project Twilight'': Part One"])
(AUDIO Project Twilight: Pt. 1 ^[+]Loading...["Project Twilight (audio story)","''Project Twilight'': Pt. 1"])

Alternately, we could place "Part One" in the same place we place chapters, so something like:

(AUDIO Project Twilight ^[+]Loading...{"chaptnum":"1","1":"Project Twilight (audio story)","2":"''Project Twilight''"})

Ignore that it uses "Chapter" for now. However, this wouldn't be ideal for pages like Jack Bannister (although this isn't the perfect example, it'll have to do because not many pages use cite source currently), as every citation would look identical until expanded.

Thoughts?
