What is the proper procedure for citing sources in Magikey database? In other words, in the Publication Facts section I would think that it would be the typical EE citing. But the field doesn't allow enough characters.
This is my example :::::
Title: 1920 United States Census
Author: Ancestry.com
Pub Facts: [Year] U.S. Federal Census (Population Schedule), [City], [Twp.], [County], [State], ED xxx, Sheet xxx, Dwelling xxx, Family xxx, [Head] household, jpeg image, (Online: The Generations Network, Inc., 2009) [Digital scan of original records in the National Archives, Washington, DC], subscription database,
WITH abbreviated the following: Year: 1920; Census Place: Detroit Ward 5, Wayne, Michigan; Roll: T625_802; Page: 25A; Enumeration District: 168; Image: 1234.
OR would Publication Fact be the following?
Ancestry.com. 1920 United States Federal Census [database on-line]. Provo, UT, USA: Ancestry.com Operations Inc, 2010. Images reproduced by FamilySearch.
Thank you, and I hope by putting too much down, I didn't confuse anyone!
Thanks

This may be a possible Bug
I have submitted a bug to our programmers to see if we can make the publish Fact field longer. The other place to add details is the Source Details field (found in the Select Source page not the Source Editor). This is the field that only applies to the current event and not the whole source. This information is also added to the citation.
