If only some page numbers are given you will have to count yourself, too - starting at the last given page number.

An example for this would be events that stretch over a period of time and can not be pinpointed to an exact paragraph or sentence in a source. Note however that on no account this practice is allowed to be abused to avoid the need for citations for details that can be pinpointed to an exact part of the source. As a general rule a source can not stretch over more than a single chapter or a maximum of ten continuous pages.*Do also note that for '''images''' the exactly corresponding source must be given, i.e. from which official source an image was taken ''as it appears'' or from which it ''was modified for use in the Lexicanum'' (the nature of the modification must also be mentioned in the corresponding image file). It is not allowed to merely use a source that only shows a ''similar'' image (for example to cite a novel cover as the source for the image if the original artwork used for the Lexicanum is clearly larger than the one used for the novel cover). Also do note that an '''explicit source for the actual subject''' of the image is required. This means you cannot simply assume/ interprete/ extrapolate that for example a person on a novel cover actually is the title character of said novel unless it is specifically stated in an official source or undisputable elements of the picture show this (e.g. the character's name on a banner or an inscription on the armour etc.) ''or'' there is really, really, really no doubt whatsoever. The latter case can normally only be argued for extremely well-known and depicted characters, such as the [[Emperor of Mankind|Emperor]] or the [[Primarch]]s.<br><br>There is '''one''' exception where footnotes should ''not'' be used: For the [[Category:Template:Trivia|Trivia sections]] sources that are not officially recognized game or lore ressources the relevant sources should be formatted as [[Lexicanum:External LinkingHelp|direct external links to the sourceCitation]] of the "Trivia" item (see also [[Warhammer_40k_-_Lexicanum:Allowed_content#References.2C_inspirations.2C_.22real_world.22_information|here]]).
