1 The bibliography
- If the reference you need is already in the bibliography then you can simply cite it as explained below.
- If not, you can create a new reference at the bibliography page: please read the bibliographic conventions below.
2 Citing references
- To cite a document simply type {{cite|Author&...&AuthorYear}}.
- The convention for citation names in the Manifold Atlas is:
- full author family names separated by & and followed by the date of publication.
- An example citation with generating text is:
The group of homotopy-spheres is finite for
[Kervaire&Milnor1963].
The group of homotopy $n$-spheres is finite for $n \neq 3$ {{cite|Kervaire&Milnor1963}}.
- To refer to a specific part of a source type {{cite|reference|part}}. For example:
Simply connected, smooth 5-dimensional h-cobordisms are homeomorphic to products [Freedman1982, Theorem 1.3].
Simply connected, smooth 5-dimensional h-cobordisms are homeomorphic to products {{cite|Freedman1982|Theorem 1.3}}.
3 The reference section
- The reference section of an article is automatically generated by placing the following text at the end of each article.
==<sectioncount/> References ==
{{#RefList:}}
4 Creating new references
- You can create new references in the box at the top of the bibliography page.
- Type the author names(s) followed by the publication year of the article into the box: e.g. Freedman1982 or Kervaire&Milnor1963.
- You will arrive at a new template page for the reference: follow the instructions in the template using the conventions below.
5 Bibliographic conventions
- When creating a reference, please follow the conventions established by the following examples: journal article, book.
- In particular, if a reference is available online please hyperlink the title of the reference to its online source.
6 References
- [Freedman1982] M. H. Freedman, The topology of four-dimensional manifolds, J. Differential Geom. 17 (1982), no.3, 357–453. MR679066 (84b:57006) Zbl 0528.57011
