  5.2 Fact  
  Article 166-Reference  
  Canon 2500  
  A Reference is an abbreviated identification of another document source within a body of text including a complete and formal identification at the end of the text. A valid reference is known as a Citation.  
  Canon 2501  
  A valid Citation is any Reference that conforms in Form to the requirements prescribed by these canons in accordance with Pactum De Singularis Caelum.  
  Canon 2502  
  A Reference is not a valid Citation but an inferior reference, having no validity if it does not conform to the requirements prescribed by these canons.  
  Canon 2503  
  There is no higher form of authority of valid Citation than these canons. When anyone references, writes or speaks of “Citation”, “Valid Citation”, or “Highest Authority Citation” it shall mean these canons and no other.  
  Canon 2504  
  Excluding the sacred covenants, charters, scripture, codes and canons of Ucadia and One Heaven, no text of historic significance, or of more than twenty (20) words that represents an exact likeness of an earlier source may be included within a more recent text without valid Citation. Failure to provide valid Citation is an offence known as plagiarism.  
  Canon 2505  
  All valid Citations comprise three (3) elements: an inserted abbreviated reference within the body of some text known as a Cito, a more formal and complete reference at the end of a page, chapter or division of the document known as a Profero and a comprehensive summary of all sources as an appendix to the document known as a Summarum.  
  Canon 2506  
  When considering the three (3) elements of any valid Citation, an author may choose one of two valid systems of Citation to use throughout their work: Notational Citation and Parenthetical Citation. Only one system may be used throughout a whole document.  
  Canon 2507  
  Notational Citation is a system of valid citation whereby the use of Cito within the body of text is as superscript sequential numbers, corresponding to a correspondingly numbered Profero at the bottom of each page or at the end of the chapter or division and then the Summarum at the end of the document.  
  Canon 2508  
  Parenthetical Citation is a system of valid citation whereby the use of Cito within the body of text is through short abbreviated text within correct brackets or parenthesis, corresponding to alphabetically or time arranged Profero at the end of the chapter or division and then the Summarum at the end of the document.  
  Canon 2509  
  When using Parenthetical Citation, all references to inferior Roman Law, Sharia Law or Talmudic Law sources must be in square brackets denoting their inferior status, with any other source permitted to use rounded brackets.  
  Canon 2510  
  When referencing a valid Canon of these Canons as a Cito, the word “Canon” followed by the appropriate number is sufficient, or the abbreviation “Can.” and then number is appropriate.  
  Canon 2511  
  Any document that uses the word “Canon” or abbreviation “Can.” to specifically denote some false and inferior Canon as a Cito and does not isolate such a reference in square brackets is itself automatically null and void from the beginning.
