The proper form of citation will be defined by the journal in which you are publishing, typically by reference to a specific style manual. | |
| Dec 26, 2012 at 14:58 | comment | added | coleopterist | You're probably better off employing footnotes like so¹: ¹For details on derivation, see Bar, Foo (1998) Studies in Advanced Baz Theory, p.94. (These things vary from publication to publication.) | |

| Dec 26, 2012 at 13:00 | comment | added | engUsero | @Bill Franke I'm a researcher in mathematics; I propose new solutions, but need to make a connection to existing ones. So, the text will be published, and I would like to have proper English. | |

Do you ice the cakes that others bake, stuff their turkeys, edit their English, ghost write their medical articles, draw the cartoons or write the dialogues for their comic strips? | |
