Numbered references in alphabetical order

Is this in author instructions somewhere?  – I would see this as confusing, and would probably prefer to indicate this as [2, p. 23]  Which would be represented by [Bibliography Number|,*p^pp*Cited Pages|]  I think. The  * represents the “link adjacent” which appears in the citation template as a centered tiny diamond shape and has to be inserted manually from the insert field drop down.  The | is the “separation” pipe character and can be typed from the keyboard or inserted from the insert field drop down.
