Does anyone here know how to write article references in Vancouver style?

I don't know how to write issue number, volume number, journal name contraction....and the sequence of mentioning them.
I just know how to write the author names.
And am I supposed to write anything in italics?

Is this for a scientific document?

All the technical paper references I have seen, in both American and British literature, at work and outside, use this template when citing another journal report:

[quote]Surname, Initials(s). Report Title. Journal Title. Journal Volume, Issue, page-number(s)[/quote]

A book, by:
[quote]Author, Date, Title, Publisher, Where published.[/quote].

In both cases the source is cited with the text by, e.g. (Smith, A. 1998, p.18).

The Reference list is at the end of the article, and in alphabetical order.

No italics or quote marks in the references: use full-stops and commas as separators; though I think some journals use them for the title, and I tend to do so elsehere to aid clarity.


This is based on the guidance notes to contibutors, in the title-page of [i]Cave & Karst Science[/i] (Transactions, British Cave Research Assocation), but standard in technical writing generally.

....(And don't I know it having once had to spend three weeks helping archive my employer's technical reports, some with titles long enough to be abstracts. Using a lap-top, too, so very awkward physically!)
