This is a proposed citation style to adapt the Bluebook to the unique needs of Wikipedia. The Bluebook is the most commonly used system for legal citations in the United States, especially for legal scholarship, but also (with modifications by local rules) in judicial opinions and party briefs.
This proposal covers citations to United States legal materials–U.S. federal (and U.S. state) constitutions, statutes, legislative history, administrative regulations, and case law. The general guideline is Wikipedia:Manual of Style (legal).
