In-text citations and the reference list
A knowledge-node page cites the claim in the sentence and keeps the full record at the end. This specimen uses Quarto’s citation syntax. It is not a scientific article, and it does not document an SCQ topic.
A literature review is a selection, not a dump of everything read (Pautasso 2013). Software that produces a result needs a citable identity of its own (Smith et al. 2016). The sentence can name two sources without turning into a bracket list.
The reading measure still comes from the same tools that set type. Knuth’s TeXbook fixes the box model this page inherits (Knuth 1984), Lamport’s manual is the document syntax most scientific pages still assume (Lamport 1994), and Bringhurst states the typographic limits a theme should not invent around (Bringhurst 2004).
Quarto turns @key and [@key] into links when link-citations is set (Posit 2026). Pandoc builds the list and the backlinks (MacFarlane 2026). A long title stays in the list rather than in the heading: the house style manual is cited here, and its full name belongs below (The University of Chicago Press 2017).
Limits
The theme keeps a long identifier, DOI, or URL inside the measure by allowing it to wrap. It does not restyle the reference list’s hanging indent.
Put a few citations in a sentence, not a cluster in every clause. The list belongs at the end of the page. A heading should name the claim; it should not carry the bibliography.
