To Reference Or Not To Reference

[BerntR]

References increases the value of the information on this site. It will make it easier to go between the book and the various discussions long after the discussions have ended.

I like references, but I like them when there is a corresponding explaination or 'real' world example to it.
I don't find it useful when all you get is a reference to a part in the book, sure it will explain what you are after but having an example or easier to understand explaination along with the reference is a better way of learning.

I couldn't say it better myself.
