Channel 4[edit]

Thanks for your contribution in Channel 4#Funding in providing the citation for Channel 4's loss making activities, it is very welcome, as we're currently working to improve the number of attributions the article has.

However, could you do me a favour and provide the page number where the citation is in the PDF, to save me having to find it myself? I am currently changing the format of references using the {{cite web}} template, and including page numbers of large PDFs signifficantly improves the inclusion of such references for the reader.

The format I have been introducing is as follows:

<ref name="somethingunique"> {{ cite web | url=Page URL, the URL of the PDF in this instance | title=Document Title | publisher=Publisher, in this case [Channel4.com] | author=Author, where there is one mentioned in the article | format=PDF (specify where the format is not a normal web page) | pages=[urlofthepdf.com/soemething.pdf#page=123 page 123] | accessdate=yyyy-mm-dd | date=yyyy-mm-dd }} </ref>

If you are happy to introduce this format yourself, please do so, or just let me know the page numbers and I'll do it for you.

Thanks again for providing this information

Thanks James. I have to admit not knowing how to reply to you, so let's see if this works...

The answer to your question is page 34 as printed or page 36 as counted by the Reader software (the table at the bottom of the page).
