Worth, Robert F. (1995). "Nigger Heaven and the Harlem Renaissance". African American Review. 29 (3): 461–73. {{cite journal}}: |access-date= requires |url= (help); Cite has empty unknown parameter: |coauthors= (help)Strombollii (talk) 20:43, 17 February 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks for improving the article. However references in footnotes should have specific pages cited instead of page ranges. - Darwinek (talk) 11:35, 18 February 2010 (UTC)
- Is this in reference to the journal articles listed, to the VanVechten text, or to both? I've never listed journal articles under a bibliography, with specific pages referenced in the references section (though I am willing to do this). The argument is generally that journal articles are short enough that information is easily verifiable. Strombollii (talk) 18:20, 18 February 2010 (UTC)
- It relates only to the journal articles. I agree with your point, however it is much more transparent to cite specific pages, same as with the books. - Darwinek (talk) 18:36, 18 February 2010 (UTC)
- Gotcha: will do. I asked over at Wikiproject Lit, but haven't gotten an answer yet: is there a Lit Manual of Style? Strombollii (talk) 19:03, 18 February 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks. I found only "Inline citations" section of WP:CITE, otherwise I am not aware if this issue is covered by the manual of style. - Darwinek (talk) 19:59, 18 February 2010 (UTC)

(←) Gotcha. I was looking more for a guide to formatting/sections, etc, like WP: MEDMOS. I'll just structure it off of some of the Literature FAs. Strombollii (talk) 20:44, 18 February 2010 (UTC)
Help
Does anyone notice that this book appears to have the word "Nigger" written in the title?
- Second sentence in the article: "The book and its title have been controversial since its publication." Drmies (talk) 03:39, 15 October 2014 (UTC)
For the curious, the person that started this thread did so as the sole action from a verizon business ip which appears to be in 'White Haven' PA. If you visit there, don't drink the water. 98.4.112.204 (talk) 05:32, 9 February 2023 (UTC)
