Line 16:
The explanation of my recent edit may not make sense, so I'll explain it here: The template {{Tl|harvnb}} is very handy for compacting repeated references. You put the reference down between {{Tl|Refbegin}} and {{Tl|Refend}} and insert {{para|ref|harv}}. Then when you click on a citation like {{Blue|Rupp 2009}}, it takes you down to the full reference. The syntax takes a little getting used to though. [[User:RockMagnetist|RockMagnetist]] ([[User talk:RockMagnetist|talk]]) 21:16, 6 April 2012 (UTC)
:I did the best I could with the edit conflict, and I think actually nothing got lost from your reformatting (please check on that). I like the 2-column ref list and the neat way of doing the chapter 13 note. I presume that either one puts the complete reference info in the Refbegin and Refend section (if it'll need the harv functionality), or else just in its first citation (as I was doing before)?
:It's probably a good idea to use full first names for the book authors, but for journal articles I'd really rather stick with the concise "Engh RA, Huber R, ..." style in one list, because there will be quite a lot of refs in here with many, many authors (like the current Read et al with 17! Is that OK with you? [[User:Dcrjsr|Dcrjsr]] ([[User talk:Dcrjsr|talk]]) 21:49, 6 April 2012 (UTC)
