The "Single Source" tag on this page is rather silly, as many of Hardy's editions are cited with dates in the text, and speak for themselves as references. To list them as references in addition to having them in the text would be a labour of unnecessary reduplication: to consign them solely to footnote/references and merely nod at them in the article text would be to diminish the value of the text and a sense of the scale of Hardy's contribution. The virtue of listing them separately might be to provide a systematic table of links to digitized copies. But whatever the solution, to insist on the addition of inline citations for the sake of it seems to me to be supererogatory. Eebahgum (talk) 17:58, 3 May 2020 (UTC)Reply
