[edit] Citations.

This is the citation information for the copy at my local library. In ths edition, contributors are listed on page xxiii. (It's a key to the initials under each article.)

{{cite encyclopedia | last = | first = | authorlink = | title = | pages = | editor = [[John Clute]] and [[Peter Nicholls]]| encyclopedia = [[The Encyclopedia of Science Fiction|Encyclopedia of Science Fiction]] | edition = 2nd ed.| year = [[1993]]| publisher = St. Martin's Press| id = ISBN 0-312-09618-6}}

For instance, the article on Isaac Asimov is cited thusly:

{{cite encyclopedia

 | coauthors = Edwards, Malcolm J.

 | edition = 2nd ed.| year = [[1993]]| publisher = St. Martin's Press
