The New Kable's Rules for Citation at the University of Aldesey, commonly known as Kable's Rules for Citation, is a style guide which provides the system of academic, professional and legal citation frequently used by students and academics of the University of Aldesey in Great Nortend. It is mainly distinguished from the University of Limmes's Manual of Citation and the University of Rhise's Style Rules. It also has currency in many professional and scholarly journals and reports.

Rules

Footnoting

The citation style used by the Rules uses symbolic footnotes, ordered sequentially on a page. The footnote symbols used are , , and GnTriple.png. The symbols are duplicated for footnotes number five and onwards. For example :

Domestic cats, Felis catus, often shed their fur. This fur can cause allergic reactions in certain people. Various methods have been attempted to try and stop the shedding of fur although none have hitherto been largely successful.GnTriple.png One promising new method has been described in a recent paper by E. C. Whitlock;✻✻ however, it is as of yet unproven.††

Names and pinpoints

If there are two authors, both should be named, using an ampersand. For example : Wheeler, E. G. & Martin, C. T. If there are more than two authors, only the first should be named, followed by & al. For example : Faulkner, I. B. & al.

Pinpoints may be used to reference individual chapters, pages, paragraphs, tables, images &c. in cited works. Pinpoints should use the abbreviations c. for chapter, p. for page, par. for paragraph, tab. for table, fig. for figure, pl. for plate, s. for section, sub-s. for sub-section &c. These should not be italicised. Ad should be used to introduce a pinpoint. Ff., f. and & seq. may be used to refer to the pages, page or sections respectively after the mentioned pinpoint. For example :

Faulkner, I. B. & al. Castle Battlements in North-West Aceshire, 1973, vol. 33 Mediæval Architecture Reports Journal p. 96, fig. 3 ad p. 3.
† Wheeler, E. G. & Martin, C. T. The clod-car merge amongst the Hambrian peoples, 1963, vol. 87 Erbonian Phonetics Journal p. 19, ad c. IV. pp. 26 f.
R. v. Ender, 2017, vol. 122 King's Chamber Reports p. 322, ad p. 348 & seq.
GnTriple.png Naming of Castles Act, 1967, 3 Cath. II p. 23, ad s. III sub-s. 3 par. a sub-par. viii.

Papers, articles and books

Academic papers and articles published in a journal or report are cited in the format : Surname, Initials Title, (Date) Year, Volume Journal Page, Pinpoint. Separately published books are cited in the format : Surname, Initials Title, Year, Publisher (and City), Pinpoint. For example :

Whitlock, E. C. A new method of reducing the shedding of feline fur in domestic environments, June 2018, vol. 43 Domestic Science Journal p. 112.
† Murray, A. B. G. De nova natura animalia domestica, 1999, Aldes., ad c. III. p. 179.

Legal citations

Statutes are cited in the format : Title, Regnal Year and Page, Pinpoint. Cases are cited in the format : Party v. Party, Term and Regnal Year, Volume Report Page, Pinpoint. Some law reports, such as the Eyre Reports, do not have sequential volume numbers but rather are ordered by regnal year. These are cited in the format Term (Volume if applicable in) Regnal Year Report, rather than Term Regnal Year, Volume Report. For example :

Domestic Animal Control Act, 26 Edm. IX p. 76, ad s. VII.
Smith v. L. Bp of Keys, Mic. 20 Cath. II, vol. 76 Sup. Rpts p. 412, ad p. 422 per L. Barminster, L. S.
Haroldson v. Kensington, Hil. vol. 1 in 37 Cath. II New Eyre Rpts p. 222, ad p. 301 per Garton, J.
GnTriple.png Nanby v. Oldman, Whit. 2 Alex. II, vol. 213 Term Rpts p. 563.

Signals

Common introductory signals include cf., vid., sed vid., vid. etiam, e.g., i.e., viz., sci. and contra. Subsequent references should use ibid., id., op. cit. and loc. cit. as appropriate, with sup. or inf. after op. cit. and loc. cit. depending on whether the reference is above or below, providing the page and footnote where the work cited may be found, if not apparent. Ibid. is used for a reference to the immediately preceding reference where the pinpoint is the same, whereas id. is used for a reference to the immediately preceding reference where the work is the same. For example :

Vid. etiam, Whitlock, op. cit. sup.
Sed vid., Murray, loc. cit. sup. p. 3 n.
Contra, ibid.
GnTriple.png Id. ad p. 478.

Id. (and ead. for female authors) can also be used to refer to additional works by the same author/s. For example :

Jackman, W. Q. Erbonian starlings and ravens, 1882, Abbey, Chep.
Id. Birds of Cardoby, 1896, Abbey, Chep.
