Change of citation style[edit]

@Laurel Lodged: @Alanrhobson: @Aldebaran: @Eddaido: @Opera hat: @SeoR: @Dimadick: @Nimetapoeg: The article is still a Start-class. It has only 4 inline citations, which all use <ref> tags surrounding a title and page or bare URL (no Cite templates). I would like to add a list of citations and change the inline citation style to shortened footnotes using the Sfn template. I therefore ask for consensus as prescribed in WP:CITEVAR. Should no objections be raised within the delay of a month, I will consider that such a consensus exists and will make the proposed changes. In the meantime I will provisionally add a list and new inline citations using Sfn. I will regularise these edits to conform to the final adopted citation style once consensus has been reached. With many thanks Johannes Schade (talk) 18:01, 6 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
