Thanks, Arlene and Jack, for a very interesting session. I totally agree that it makes perfect sense to move away from the numerous reference styles currently in use, and to develop a standard universal reference style. It would definitely make the writing, copy-editing and proofing processes much more straightforward for all involved!
