Wikipedia:WikiProject U2/References

This is an essay. It contains the advice or opinions of one or more Wikipedia contributors. This page is not an encyclopedia article, nor is it one of Wikipedia's policies or guidelines, as it has not been thoroughly vetted by the community. Some essays represent widespread norms; others only represent minority viewpoints.

When building a U2 article there are a lot of sources that can be looked at for information. This inexhaustive list aims to compile the most commonly used and informative references in an easy-use list. Each reference has three sections: Description (what kinds of information it has, what articles can make best use of it, etc.), Notes (how to source it in the Notes section of a page for in-line citations), and References (the full citation text that the in-line notes refer to, used in the References section; and yes, the asterik is included in the cite!)*

Notes will likely be used several times in an article while References should be written out only once. If you don't have a source that you think could be useful, check with another editor of U2 articles (listed below) who may and ask them if there is anything that can be included with a full citation.

*For the difference between Notes and References, see the main U2 article as an example. Only books should be listed under the References section. Remember to include the asterik so that they end up on different lines!
