Task 4: id on cite

edit

Under the previous XHTML 4.01 usage <cite>...</cite> defined an entire citation. With HTML5, <cite> now defines only the title of a work. There are still many uses of <cite> used to define an entire citation and often to apply an anchor id. Note that uses of <cite> exist without the closing </cite> or incorrectly closed by </span>.

Where used with a Citation Style 1 or Citation Style 2 template, the <cite> should be removed:
