Bit of a bug here (2nd ed. ed.). --Salix (talk): 09:16, 29 October 2008 (UTC)
Inconsistent formatting
First, an example of incorrect formatting of editor reference:
- Here is a citation with the chapter title included:
- Template loop detected: Template:Cite book
- The editor's name is preceded by in.
- If the chapter title is omitted, the treatment of the editor changes:
- Template loop detected: Template:Cite book
- Now there is a double period after ed and the in has been dropped.
- Aside from this inconsistency in format, insertion of the word in before the editors name is sometimes inappropriate. The word in makes sense for a collection of works by various authors, edited by an editor. But it does not make sense for a reprinted classic work, such as this example, where the original authors are responsible for the entire work. In this latter case, the reference is not to a chapter among variously sourced chapters, but to a particular topic in a work by the same authors.
This issue is remedied by simply using the editor's name followed by (editor) in all cases.
Second, an example of inconsistent linking to url.
- Here is a citation with the chapter title Preface specified. The url for the book becomes attached to the chapter heading:
- Template loop detected: Template:Cite book
- If the chapter title is omitted, the url is attached to the book title instead:
- Template loop detected: Template:Cite book
If |chapterurl= is not used, the url should attach by default to the title, and not to the chapter heading. The option |chapterurl= then becomes a true option, and is not forced upon the writer. Brews ohare (talk) 15:20, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

Inconsistent formatting
First, an example of incorrect formatting of editor reference:
- Here is a citation with the chapter title included:
- Template loop detected: Template:Cite book
- The editor's name is preceded by in.
- If the chapter title is omitted, the treatment of the editor changes:
- Template loop detected: Template:Cite book
- Now there is a double period after ed and the in has been dropped.
- Aside from this inconsistency in format, insertion of the word in before the editors name is sometimes inappropriate. The word in makes sense for a collection of works by various authors, edited by an editor. But it does not make sense for a reprinted classic work, such as this example, where the original authors are responsible for the entire work. In this latter case, the reference is not to a chapter among variously sourced chapters, but to a particular topic in a work by the same authors.
This issue is remedied by simply using the editor's name followed by (editor) in all cases.
Second, an example of inconsistent linking to url.
- Here is a citation with the chapter title Preface specified. The url for the book becomes attached to the chapter heading:
- Template loop detected: Template:Cite book
- If the chapter title is omitted, the url is attached to the book title instead:
- Template loop detected: Template:Cite book
If |chapterurl= is not used, the url should attach by default to the title, and not to the chapter heading. The option |chapterurl= then becomes a true option, and is not forced upon the writer. Brews ohare (talk) 15:20, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

Inconsistent formatting
First, an example of incorrect formatting of editor reference:
- Here is a citation with the chapter title included:
- Template loop detected: Template:Cite book
- The editor's name is preceded by in.
- If the chapter title is omitted, the treatment of the editor changes:
- Template loop detected: Template:Cite book
- Now there is a double period after ed and the in has been dropped.
- Aside from this inconsistency in format, insertion of the word in before the editors name is sometimes inappropriate. The word in makes sense for a collection of works by various authors, edited by an editor. But it does not make sense for a reprinted classic work, such as this example, where the original authors are responsible for the entire work. In this latter case, the reference is not to a chapter among variously sourced chapters, but to a particular topic in a work by the same authors.
This issue is remedied by simply using the editor's name followed by (editor) in all cases.

Bit of a bug here (2nd ed. ed.). --Salix (talk): 09:16, 29 October 2008 (UTC)
Inconsistent formatting
First, an example of incorrect formatting of editor reference:
- Here is a citation with the chapter title included:
- Template loop detected: Template:Cite book
- The editor's name is preceded by in.
- If the chapter title is omitted, the treatment of the editor changes:
- Template loop detected: Template:Cite book
- Now there is a double period after ed and the in has been dropped.
- Aside from this inconsistency in format, insertion of the word in before the editors name is sometimes inappropriate. The word in makes sense for a collection of works by various authors, edited by an editor. But it does not make sense for a reprinted classic work, such as this example, where the original authors are responsible for the entire work. In this latter case, the reference is not to a chapter among variously sourced chapters, but to a particular topic in a work by the same authors.
This issue is remedied by simply using the editor's name followed by (editor) in all cases.
Second, an example of inconsistent linking to url.
- Here is a citation with the chapter title Preface specified. The url for the book becomes attached to the chapter heading:
- Template loop detected: Template:Cite book
- If the chapter title is omitted, the url is attached to the book title instead:
- Template loop detected: Template:Cite book
If |chapterurl= is not used, the url should attach by default to the title, and not to the chapter heading. The option |chapterurl= then becomes a true option, and is not forced upon the writer. Brews ohare (talk) 15:20, 8 December 2008 (UTC)
- If the chapter title is omitted, the url is attached to the book title instead:
