Editing Incubator escapee wiki:Citing sources (section)

====Books and print articles====
{{shortcut|WP:EBOOK}}
Specify the page number or range of page numbers. Page numbers are not required for a reference to the book or article as a whole. When you specify a page number, it is helpful to specify the version (date and edition for books) of the source because the layout, pagination, length, etc. can change between editions.

If there are no page numbers, whether in [[ebook]]s or print materials, then you can use other means of identifying the relevant section of a lengthy work, such as the chapter number, the section title, or the specific entry.

In some works, such as plays and ancient works, there are standard methods of referring to sections, such as "Act 1, scene 2" for plays and [[Bekker numbering|Bekker numbers]] for Aristotle's works. Use these methods whenever appropriate.
