THIS IS A TEST. IT IS A CRUDE DRAFT OF A PRELIMINARY BIBLIOGRAPHY.
Scholarly books
Here we are trying to determine the best format for citing Saaty's books on this site. Maybe the book we chose for the examples isn't the best one, though--it is from 1991 and may even be out of print.
Amazon.com has a photo of the cover, showing different authors, a long title, mention of the series, etc. See it HERE.
The present Wikipedia bibliography in the Saaty article shows this. Seems like it refers to a totally different book. Maybe it has the wrong ISBN. Not the "annotation," describing what is in the book. We might want to do this in the Citizendium bibliography:
- The Logic of Priorities, ISBN 0-9620317-3-9, Vol. III, AHP Series, Thomas L. Saaty and Luis G. Vargas, RWS Publ., 299 pp., 1991. This book is an introduction to prioritization using the Analytic Hierarchy Process in applications such as transport projects, technology transfer, and resource allocation.
Below are shown "started from scratch" citation examples for the same ISBN, cited in different formats using various tools. The tools aren't necessarily consistent. Authors vary. Titles vary, and might not include the longest version, which is probably what we want to show. Exact name of the publisher varies.
- Vargas, Luis G.; Saaty, Thomas L.; Kearns, Kevin Corrigan (1991). Analytical planning: the organization of systems. Pittsburgh, PA: RWS. ISBN 0-9620317-3-9. -- From Template Builder
- Saaty, Thomas (1991). Analytical Planning. Pittsburgh: RWS. ISBN 0962031739. -- From OttoBib in WP format
- Saaty, Thomas et.al. Analytical Planning. Pittsburgh: RWS, 1991. -- From OttoBib in MLA format
- Saaty, T., Kearns, K., & Vargas, L. (1991). Analytical Planning. Pittsburgh: RWS. -- From OttoBib in APA format
- Saaty, Thomas et.al. Analytical Planning. Pittsburgh: RWS, 1991. -- From OttoBib in Chicago/Turabian format
- This is what OttoBib gives for BibTeX format:
@Book{saaty1991,
author = 'Saaty, Thomas', title = 'Analytical Planning', publisher = 'RWS', year = '1991', address = 'Pittsburgh', isbn = '0962031739' }
Joke books
Whatever they are, they could be cited here.
Papers
We need a sample in Wikipedia-preferred format, and maybe in some other formats as well.
