::::::If only we, the writers, expressed citations in a way that permitted them, the readers, to elect how THEY want to SEE the blimmin' citations and then let Wikipedia render the citations into whatever format a particular reader has chosen to see them (i.e., long, short, mixed, whatever), there wouldn't ''be'' a need for all this [[WP:CITEVAR|consensus]] BS, where a small set of writers (usually the most recent and most aggressive mob) decides for EVERYONE how they should "eat their meal". Its ridiculous, uncivil, and technologically quite unnecessary. [[User:Elrondil|Elrondil]] ([[User talk:Elrondil|talk]]) 07:07, 14 June 2025 (UTC)
:::::::OK, so do we settle on standard {{t|cite}} references for all, (i.e. change them into the same format as the other 60-odd) or do we want to have these 5 (or is it 2) references in the ''Sources'' section using different mechanisms, with limited hover-over info, and an additional click required to get to the source?

::::::::{{reply to |Chumpih }} What do you mean by "standard {{t|cite}}"? If you mean replacing the short citations using {{t|sfnp}} with long citations using <nowiki><ref></ref></nowiki>{{t|rp}}s while retaining the {{t|cite Q}}s, you have my OK but this also

::::::::FYI, in my browser, hovering over a short citation opens a flyover with short citation details, and when I hover on THAT it opens a flyover with the long citation details … so I click just once. [[User:Elrondil|Elrondil]] ([[User talk:Elrondil|talk]]) 05:51, 16 June 2025 (UTC)
