To Create a New Bibliography Page Hosted at the Wiki
- Create a link to a new page using double square brackets - what's inside the brackets will be the title of the new page:
- Sample New Page To see what that looks like, click on "edit" for this page and look at the wiki markup.
- Go to that new page and start adding content!
Suggestions for New Bibliographies
- Use annotations. They add scholarly value!
- Include links to WorldCat records for books, and include links to reviews, especially open-access ones (BMCR, AJA, etc.).
- Include DOI links for articles, if possible, or other stable urls.
- Arrange the bibliography using sections, for ease of navigation.
