[edit] Citations
Dear Winthrop Editors, A lot of work was done to reformat nearly 100 improperly cited reference sources. Please help maintain Wikipedia standards for this article by using proper citation styles.
- Simple website links are sometimes appropriate in a general usage, but not for citing a specific fact.
- Using<ref></ref> tags get the link to show up in the reference section but it's still not a properly formatted citation.
- Do not cite the same reference repeatedly in succession. If several consecutive sentences can be cited to the same source then you do not need to (shouldn't) redundantly cite each individual sentence separately. Just cite the paragraph or section once as a whole.
- Use <ref name="something">{{cite... to cite the first of multiple identical references, and just use<ref name="something"/> (notice the following slash) to cite subsequent instances of that same reference.
