I'm not sure what is supposed to be indicated by the odd formatting in the bibliography section. It appears to all be done using the {{citation}} template, which for some reason is adding all these dashes or whatever. I don't recall seeing this done this way before and I find it very odd and unhelpful, but thought I would post here before trying to change it in case there was some reason for it that I am not aware of.

Do you mean the "----; title" thing? The line represents "same [author] as above", similar to how some formats use "ibid" to mean "same work as previously cited", I believe. I have no objection to a change in the formatting (in fact, I don't think I've even edited this article, and I have no idea how it ended up on my watchlist...wikipedia is weird), but the current format isn't something I haven't seen occasionally, though mostly in paper bibliographies and not on wikipedia.

I have commenced a tidy-up of the Bibliography section using cite templates and tables for short stories, poems and/or book reviews. Capitalization and punctuation follow standard cataloguing rules in AACR2 and RDA, as much as Wikipedia templates allow it. ISBNs and other persistent identifiers, where available, are commented out, but still available for reference. This is a work in progress; feel free to continue.
