Does anyone know where these incomplete references such as "Henri Lefebvre (1971a:19)" are referring to?

There's no article on fade-outs but there probably should be.203.214.75.127
[edit] Fader programs for AOL chatrooms
I think a small explanation on these types of programs is nessesary... Just a "do not forget" precaution.75.82.153.11 07:26, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Weird quote removed from the article
I removed this quote today because it seems to be only peripherally relevant to a scientific article on fading.
"For Henri Lefebvre (1971a:19), 'everyday life in the modern world' is a privileged site for the crucial fact of recurrence. The question of how to end a song now becomes pressing. The answer, often, is not to end: the harmonically inconclusive or artificially abrupt finish, or - quintessentially - the fade. As Sean Cubitt points out (1984: 210), this refers us to the activity of the auditor, with whom lies the only available fulfillment...[It] pledges that the performer...has an existence beyond the recording...This refusal of completion refers us, not back into the song, as is the case with the classic aesthetic object but outwards to the ways in which the song is heard.
"At the meta-song level, the prevalence of pre-taped sequences (for shops, pubs, parties, concert intervals, aircraft headsets) emphasizes the importance of flow. The effect on radio pop programme form [is] a stress on continuity achieved through the use of fades, voice-over links, twin-turntable mixing and connecting jingles."As I said in the edit summary, if anyone feels strongly that it should be in there, please do put it back; but – just an idea – perhaps a clearer paraphrase of what it actually means would be better...
