There are 48 references, so far. I will use the short format like this, when the reference is cited repeatedly in the article. If it cited just once, then I will write out the full reference inside the tag. Or put the web citation in the tag. Not ideal but it works. I'm certainly open to trying other methods of handling references.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Royal_Scots is a similar example - things cited multiple times are just "Paterson", things cited once are full refs.
