== Accurate book citations == | |||
Sometimes, with books, it can be useful to cite specific editions, chapters and pages. This is done with the <nowiki>{{{ed}}}</nowiki>, <nowiki>{{{chapt}}}</nowiki> and <nowiki>{{{page}}}</nowiki> fields, used for the edition, chapter and page(s) respectively. They can be used in any combination, but it is encouraged to always use <nowiki>{{{ed}}}</nowiki> with <nowiki>{{{page}}}</nowiki> as page numbers can change between editions. Some examples are below: | |||
<pre>([[PROSE]]: {{User:Bongolium500/cite source|Doctor Who in an Exciting Adventure with the Daleks (novelisation)|ed=1965 Armada edition|chapt=1. A Meeting on the Common}})</pre> | |||
