== Source Citations ==
 
There are many accepted ways to create a source for a citation. Many sources in the reference section of Wiki pages follow ''The Chicago Manual of Style,'' but other forms are acceptable.  Below are some suggested formatting regarding citations. More information can be found on the Wiki page: [[FamilySearch Wiki:Source Citation Formats|Source Citation Formats]].
== Formatting Books ==
There are two ways to list sources in the Wiki:<br>
1. '''[[FamilySearch Wiki:Manual of Style-Formatting#Reference and Bibliographic Lists - Listing the Author First|Reference and Bibliographic Lists - Listing the Author First]]:''' Use a traditional citation style, such as ''The Chicago Manual of Style''. ''This should be used for references and bibliographic lists found on Wiki pages.''<br>
2. '''[[FamilySearch Wiki:Manual of Style-Formatting#List of Books in Body of the Wiki Page - Listing the Title First|List of Books in Body of the Wiki Page - Listing the Title First]]:'''  Books that are found in the body of a Wiki page should use a more usable form for users to review the books. They include all the elements of a citation for a book, but it is rearranged for easy review.
 
=== Reference and Bibliographic Lists - Listing the Author First===
*See [[FamilySearch Wiki:Manual of Style-Formatting#References and Bibliographic Lists of Books (Listing the Author First)- Basic Form|References and Bibliographic Lists of Books (Listing the Author First)- Basic Form]] for instructions on how to format book citations used in reference sections and bibliographic lists.
 
===List of Books in Body of the Wiki Page - Listing the Title First===
When there are long lists of books or articles within a Wiki page, use the format listed below. This allows users to easily scan a list of pertinent resources. This style should not be used for reference sections or bibliographic lists found in the Wiki. Instead use the instructions found [[ |here]].'''''<br>
Add the information in the following order, left to right:<br>
1. Add a bullet at the beginning of each book/article citation<br>
2. Add title of book in italics<br>
3. Add the word “By” and then put the author’s full name, starting with first name<br>
4. Add publication information, using the following:  publication location, followed by colon, publisher with a comma, and publishing date after the comma. See Example Format below.<br>
5. If the citation provides the At various libraries (WorldCat) template, add it directly after the publication date or after the optional FamilySearch Catalog call number entry - if it is listed.<br>
6. If the call number from the FamilySearch Catalog is provided, place it after the publication date and before the optional At various libraries (WorldCat) template. If there is no At various libraries (WorldCat) template, put it before the "Online at:."<br>
7. Add the phrase "Online at:" at the very end of the entry. Bold and italicize the phrase for better visibility. '''[[FamilySearch Wiki:Manual of Style-Formatting #Listing Online Books|Instructions for creating links to online books]].'''
*For multiple authors, use the instructions below: [[FamilySearch Wiki:Manual of Style-Formatting#Multiple Authors|Multiple Authors]]
*''[[FamilySearch Wiki:Formatting Databases and Books Cheat Sheet|Formatting Databases and Books Cheat Sheet]]''<br><br>
 
====List of Books in Body of the Wiki Page (Listing Title First) - Not Online====
*For any book reference listed, you may include in the FamilySearch Catalog call number and/or the link to WorldCat as part of the entry. When you do add them, use templates to list call numbers for the [[Help:FamilySearch_Templates#FamilySearch_Catalog_Entry_Digital_Images_Template|FamilySearch Catalog]] and for [[Help:WorldCat Templates|WorldCat]].
*The FamilySearch Catalog entry should go before the "At Various libraries (WorldCat)" template. These two items are optional and not required in the Bibliographic source.<br>
*For multiple authors, use the instructions below: [[FamilySearch Wiki:Manual of Style-Formatting#Multiple Authors|Multiple Authors]]

===Listing Online Books - FamilySearch Digital Books and Other Websites===
*'''URL:''' Use the URL to the online book as the link. FamilySearch Digital Library links should be obtained using these '''[[FamilySearch Wiki:Manual of Style-Formatting #Obtaining a Link in FamilySearch Digital Library|instructions]]'''.
*'''Online at:''' When a digital version of a source is available, add the phrase "Online at:" at the end of the citation.
*'''Format:''' Bold and italicize the phrase for better visibility.
*'''Number of Websites:''' If an online book is available on more than one website, list up to three websites. List the free websites first. Avoid Google Books unless there is no other free website option.
*'''Websites to Link to:''' Look for free websites first, such as, [[FamilySearch Wiki:Manual of Style-Formatting#Obtaining a Link in FamilySearch Digital Library|FamilySearch Digital Library]], Hathitrust, Internet Archive, WorldCat, and Ancestry($). Google Books should only used if it is a free book and the only option. Ancestry is a paid website, but can often have the only available online version of the book. To indicate a cost, use a ($) after Ancestry, such as, Ancestry ($).
*'''Link to Book:''' The clickable link to the online digital book should be the name of the website, such as, FamilySearch Digital Library, Hathitrust, Internet Archive, WorldCat, and Ancestry ($). Google Books should only be used if it is free and it is the only option.
*'''Multiple Volumes for Online Books:''' Use these '''[[FamilySearch Wiki:Manual of Style-Formatting#Multiple Volumes for Online Books|instructions]]''' to list links for multiple volumes.
*'''Dates:''' If there are specific dates regarding the information in the book, it may be included at the beginning of the link '''''if it is in a bullet list of online collections.''''' Dates should be avoided if it is in a bullet list of online books available.

=====Obtaining a Link in FamilySearch Digital Library=====
*'''Old Template:''' Previously, a template was used to link to the FamilySearch Digital Library. The current link structure to FamilySearch makes it impossible to use a template. If you see an old template, please convert it to the URL using the instructions listed in the next bullet. The old FamilySearch Digital Library template was: FSbook.
*'''Instructions to Obtain Correct URL:'''

*'''Online at:''' When a digital version of a source is available, add the phrase "Online at:" at the end of the citation.  
*'''Format:''' Bold and italicize the phrase for better visibility.
*'''Number of Websites:''' If an online book is available on more than one website, list up to three websites. List the free websites first. Avoid Google Books unless there is no other free website option.
*'''Websites to Link to:''' Look for free websites first, such as, [[FamilySearch Wiki:Manual of Style-Formatting#Books Online - Obtaining a Link in FamilySearch Digital Library|FamilySearch Digital Library]], Hathitrust, Internet Archive, WorldCat, and Ancestry($). Google Books should only used if it is a free book and the only option. Ancestry is a paid website, but can often have the only available online version of the book. To indicate a cost, use a ($) after Ancestry, such as, Ancestry ($).

This should be used when in a bullet list of online collections also giving dates. Dates should be avoided if it is in a bullet list of online books available, so it will match the other books listed. Use these [[FamilySearch Wiki:Manual of Style-Formatting#Books Online - Dates Listed on Online Book Link|Instructions]]
*'''WorldCat:''' A link to WorldCat can also be added to the online book link. It is not required. It should be before "Online at:" in the link. '''[[Help:WorldCat Templates|Instructions on how to make the template.]]'''
*'''Style of Bibliographic Entry:''' Links to online books should be included with both styles of bibliographic entries:<br>
