Style[]
A reference takes the form of an abbreviation referring to a book or journal, followed by a number giving a chapter or volume (please don't follow the established academic convention of using page numbers, because there are too many editions with differing numbering, and first editions are too hard to get). For example:
Roger is aged seven as the series begins (SA1). — chapter 1, Swallows and Amazons.
References in this wiki are based on those proposed by Christina Hardyment (MM1) — volume 1 of Mixed Moss.
