I cite the census on lots of tags - name, parent/child, birth,
marriage, occupation, and census typically - and I don't want the
extra stuff like film number and comments (i.e. viewed on Ancestry) to
appear on each note. I avoid that by making one source for each roll
of film, which generally is a county, except in larger cities.
