For book citations, you really need to be more specific about where the material came from. Page # is ideal, but section/chapter is acceptable to. JamaUtil (talk) 00:30, 10 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I wonder whether not adding books but rather focusing on weaker sources (such as claiming that newspaper articles are tertiary) qualifies an editor to say this sort of things. There is also the matter of the difference between a citation and a quotation, but I digress...Truth or consequences-2 (talk) 03:16, 10 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Did you want me to respond? Books are a great resource. Though they are difficult to verify, it is even harder when you don't include the page number. That is usually standard citation practice, no matter the field. Happy editing! JamaUtil (talk) 03:24, 10 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
