Reference format

[edit]

Hi there, I think it'd be worth moving the handful of references here to one of the automated formats, eg using sfn' or 'harvnb format, as these are now available. If I don't get a reply I'll move these in about seven days. Jim Killock (talk) 10:08, 31 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please no. I find the lack of title in sfn and harv to be utterly annoying as I have to check the references to figure out which reference is actually being used with "Name Date". Ealdgyth (talk) 13:38, 31 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
You get this from the hover function, no? But it's not a big deal. Jim Killock (talk) 13:49, 31 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Not just from the hover, but when I'm editing. It's a lot easier to figure out "Coredon Dictionary of Medieval Terms & Phrases p. 225" than {{sfn|Coredon|2007|225}}. Ealdgyth (talk) 14:05, 31 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
