Citing The Universal Character Set

ISO 10646, a general, informal citation for the ISO/IEC 10646 family of standards, is acceptable in most prose. And even though it is a separate standard, the term Unicode is used just as often, informally, when discussing the UCS. However, any normative references to the UCS as a publication should cite a particular part and version, using the form ISO/IEC 10646-{part}:{year}; for example: ISO/IEC 10646-1:1993.
