== Common Errors ==
=== Missing Page Numbers ===
When a bibliographic resource is cited for a specific idea, page numbers are normally required. Simply citing the whole book isn't really helpful; the respective page numbers should be included wherever reasonable.
=== Wrong Year ===
It is tempting to cite the year of first edition of a resource even when a later edition is used. This is unacceptable, since different editions should have different bibliographic records and should not be confused. To avoid confusion, the bibliographic data of the edition that was actually used is to be entered.
