I edited the articles Instrumental case and Preposition and postposition to include Sanskrit examples (the section Instrumental case#Instrumental in Sanskrit and the penultimate paragraph of Preposition_and_postposition#Case_affixes). I would like to know:
(1) if both articles were edited correctly;
(2) if the reference of the book that contains the source of the information, at the end of Instrumental case#Instrumental in Sanskrit, is correct.
(3) is it necessary to cite the ISBN? the book is the fourth edition, and the ISBN is 089148079X.
Thank you in advance for your help. Sanscrit1234 (talk) 12:51, 7 January 2009 (UTC)
- 1. Yes, they look fine. 2. Yes, but it would be better to put the reference in "ref" tags <ref>like this</ref> , and then add {{reflist}} at the bottom of the page to make it show as a footnote. 3. I'm not sure, but it doesn't really hurt anything either way. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP) 14:47, 7 January 2009 (UTC)
