Please stop using the template for this citation. Using the template causes the cite to be defined and linked in footnote 6, while footnote 1 refers to it. This is not a proper citation method, particularly when the "ref name" function consolidates the cites in footnote 1. Compare the references section using the template with the current 'ref name' format. Also one of the copyedit changes you made is ungrammatical. Laszlo Panaflex ( talk) 14:03, 3 March 2016 (UTC)
Alexis, there is NO preferred referencing format on Wikipedia. Editors are free to choose a style as long as it is CONSISTENT throughout the article ( WP:CITESTYLE). So you either change ALL citations to the style you prefer, or you adapt to the style that's already used. It is really confusing for a reader to see multiple citation styles. (for the record, I like the Harvard footnote style when citing multiple pages from the same work, but that's not the case in this article). Renata ( talk) 19:30, 4 March 2016 (UTC)
