Templates for notes and bibliography entries in Notes-Bibliography

style
The following templates show what elements should be included in what order when citing
several common types of sources in notes ( N ) and bibliographies ( B ). They also show
punctuation, capitalization of titles, and when to use italics or quotation marks. Gray
shading shows abbreviations (or their spelled-out versions) and other terms as they would
actually appear in a citation. ## stands in for footnote number. XX stands in for page
numbers actually cited, YY for a full span of page numbers for an article or a chapter.
