Additional suggestions

You probably should start at MOS:LAYOUT. You also need to cite your sources properly, eg page numbers, the actual book details rather than just the name of an article in the book, etc -- see WP:CITE but you can use the templates which are above this edit window under the dropdown arrow labeled 'cite', which is what I usually do. Click books and then expand it so you can find where to put the page number (which is not in the field 'pages', which is confusing, but in the field 'page' which you only get by clicking on 'show extra fields'.
