Talk:Mythic Mailer in An American Dream: Difference between revisions

:{{reply to|Dillbug}} Good deal. It just takes practice and persistence. For the citations: there are extra numbers at the end of three that seems to be page numbers. Check those. Also, remove the quotation marks in titles. You see they are unnecessary as the software will insert them if they are needed. All citations, too, must have “|ref=harv” in them in order for the shortened footnote form to work. Finally, you need to see to the odd Mailer reference (e.g., <code><nowiki>Mailer & 1964-65, p. 83.</nowiki></code>) that is used a lot but (1) doesn't have a corresponding entry in works cited, and (2) uses a span of dates which will not work with sfn. I assume this is ''AAD''? If so, it just needs to be 1965, as that's when it was published. —[[User:Grlucas|Grlucas]] ([[User talk:Grlucas|talk]]) 19:17, 7 April 2019 (UTC)

::{{reply to|Grlucas}} I think I fixed the entry for <code><nowiki>Mailer & 1964-65, p. 83</nowiki></code>, added /|ref harv to all of the citations, and I don't have a clue how to include the second set of dates. I've tried using section-date, work-date, etc. That is why I asked you how to include them in the references requiring two dates.--[[User:Dillbug|Dillbug]] ([[User talk:Dillbug|talk]]) 02:07, 8 April 2019 (UTC)
