current practice in citation is cite by a number like [12] and in that number we find the name of author publication etc.
Academics is still greatly underestimated. i wold like to start a movement that in journals and books any citation shojuld of course have ghe number but include the authors names at that place itself so as to respect the cademic work.
so one should cite like please refer the article [12] by "ralph henstock and the book [14] by Jarnik and Jersolav Kurzweil
