Is there a visual standard how texts from other sources should quoted in the Prog Archives?

I found one quotation by Joren, lookin like this:
 
(According to the American musicologist Richard Taruskin, Zorn once wrote that “‘I’ve got an incredibly short attention span’, and that his music is meant for listeners who, like him, grew up with television.” *)
 
* Richard Taruskin, The Oxford History Of Western Music, Volume 5: The Late Twentieth Century (Oxford University Press, 2005), p. 504.
 
 
I used the style from my Polytechinc instructions, looking like this:
 
...these most likely being contributions of HARRI PYSTYNEN, [Lehtonen] who had studied and played winds at the Finnish army orchestra [Esko Lehtonen: Suomalaisen rockin tietosanakirja, Soundi 1983.].

I think as long as due acknowledgement is always clearly given, the actual format is not too important.

BTW,I was reading that BIO the other day and really enjoy the way he mixes personal observations with fact and info from other sources.
Great job!
