Citation

@Mohammad Umar Ali, can you please explain this revert? The article uses shortened footnotes (see WP:SFN for an explanation) and you are changing the established citation style in the article, which is not permitted per WP:CITEVAR. You're also introducing a sfn multiple-target error; see Category:Harv_and_Sfn_multiple-target_errors. Thanks, Wham2001 (talk) 10:50, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I reverted it because sfn citation wasn't done properly when i viewed it, it showed cite: .., etc. apart from the link Please fix that too this time. Mohammad Umar Ali (talk) 14:35, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Done. For reference, the problem was that I had used {{sfn}} instead of {{sfnp}} (the sfns in this article are parenthesised). Best, Wham2001 (talk) 20:23, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
