Help:References and page numbers

Per the verifiability policy, "The source should be cited clearly and precisely, with page numbers where appropriate."

Examples
The manner in which a page number is included depends on the citation style. These examples use templates, but these are not required.

List-defined references
Page numbers are shown in-text by using and r.

Shortened footnotes
Using, showing the page numbers in the notes list and a separate list for the full reference; using sfn.

A mix of and  with the full reference in the first footnote and shortened footnotes for subsequent references.

Parenthetical referencing
(Harvard), showing the page numbers in-text using harv.

Other in-source locations
Often, a page number is not appropriate such as when citing an audio or video source or a book that has no page numbers. The templates have an at parameter that can be used to include non-page locators. The Author-date citation templates use loc.

Some example locators: section (sec.), column (col.), paragraph (para.); track; hours, minutes and seconds; act, scene, canto, book, part, folio, stanza, back cover, liner notes, indicia, colophon, dust jacket, verse
