Reference format for Hellenistic astrology

Hi Minerva - good to see you adding content and references to the Hellenistic astrology page. On Wikipedia we can't use the phrase "hereafter Holden ...." because if another editor changes the first reference then the full citation information gets lost. I am going to set the page up to work with the shortened citations format for references, which makes it easier to include multiple refs to one work, and keeps the code cleaner. If you have any problems just add the refs however works best for you and I'll keep the page on my watchlist and reformat the refs when they are added. Hope this is OK with you. Cheers, -- Zac Δ ^talk! 08:53, 1 November 2011 (UTC)

BTW, are you able to provide the page refrence for the Holden reference you inserted? -- Zac Δ ^talk! 08:56, 1 November 2011 (UTC)
