Definition of 'Reference'
I do not understand the definition of 'reference', or the distinction between 'reference' and 'citation'. I would greatly appreciate seeing examples. Anthony.Sebastian 01:40, 2 October 2009 (UTC)
- I chose this terminology somewhat arbitrarily in order to distinguish between the presentation of source information and their use within a text. So, a citation is something like: "Bunny, Bugs, Daffy Duck, Wiley Coyote, Yosemite Sam (1935). The Memoirs of Several Celluloid Masters. Toontown, Toonville: Toonville Press. ISBN 879-20345204589245."
- A reference to this citation would be: [Bunny1935] or [1], in many cases in superscript and the latter case occurring when the Bugs Bunny citation was the first in a Bibliography.
