There are two basic kinds of page references in citations:
Inclusive pages
When you are using Citation, inclusive pages are entered in your Citation records.
Note that for certain legal source works (cases published in reporters, for instance)
only the "Initial page," needs to be entered.
Pinpoint or specific page references Pinpoint references tells a reader the specific location of a cited passage within the larger work. Pinpoint references are used in footnotes and intext citations (Author-Date, Page or Author-Page) referencing freestanding works, such as books, technical reports, journal articles and other works. A pinpoint reference is often a page reference, section, paragraph, or some combination of these.
When you are using Citation, pinpoint references are entered in Access keys in your document.
For many publishing styles, particularly those that use footnotes/endnotes, or Author-Date Short Form cites
in the body of the paper,
pinpoint cites are critical to the proper documentation of sourceworks. Note that Citation program will include any text in your Cite keys - including section symbols, paragraph symbols, and page numbers - following the colon (:) as a pinpoint cite in formatted citations in your document. The Cite key in your document consists of the Access phrase for the work cited, plus a pinpoint cite.
