Citation Issues

The recent posting of QuickLesson 25 was somewhat helpful, but my situation appears to be a bit more complex. Perhaps that is just my perception...

The method of accessing an image in the État Civil records of the Archives of Paris involves using the search-engine to access to the start of a set of browsable images (eg. the start of a portion of an imaged film), then one must browse the images to locate the item-of-interest.

This results in two questions:

Warning: This is a long one.

After reviewing past discussions on EE about citing online city directories, I'm still puzzling over how best to tackle this situation: creating citations for images from a series of volumes in a library's digital collections--in this case, the New York Public Library's collection, "New York City Directories." 

Is there a rule to follow when citing references in table format? For example, in Amy Harris's "Whom Did Mary Marry? Finding Mary Browett's Multiple Marriages in Early-Nineteenth-Century Gloucestershire, England," National Genealogical Society Quarterly 109 (March 2021): 45-54. Or Ricki King, "A Father's Luching and Multiple Maiden Names: Ida King of Ralls County, Missouri, and Des Moines County, Iowa," National Genealogical Society Quarterly 109 (March 2021): 29-44. The Amy Harris article appears as though a modified short note is used.

Dear EE.

I apologize if I seem to be repeatedly asking the same question.

I'm stuck - perhaps unintentionally trying too hard to standardize in the matter of "master lists".

If, in the case of online (derivative) sources, it is appropriately conceivable to concurrently have:

Question: How does one address the issue of making a (relatively) EE compliant reference to a nameplate on a box containing cremation ashes? I have a photo of said box with the name of the person, DOB and DOD with no other information available.

Dear EE,

This is my first go at citing a newspaper article. I have consulted https://www.evidenceexplained.com/node/1679.

Reference Note:

I have a question about citing an image of a compiled military service record found at the National Archives Catalog website. Unlike at Fold3, there's no database title; instead, the image is described as part of a NARA series and record group. The image is also offered without reference to the microfilm production [M258, roll 85], but it has a unique identifier, used in the URL: https://catalog.archives.gov/id/22028291. Interestingly, the image is from Fold3. 

So, here is an attempt at a reference note citation using 11.32 with a layer for the image:

I am trying to prepare a template that will cover the situation of revised editions and/or multi volumes.

The basic format for a published book is:

Author, role, Book Title (Pub Location: Publisher, Year), page.

and for multiple volumes, EEv3, 12.69, p. 705 guides us to include the total number of volumes immediately after the Title:

Author, role, Book Title, X volumes (Pub Location: Publisher, Year), page.

and for a revised edition, EEv3, QCM, p. 651, shows the edition data should be placed immediately after the Title:

Dear EE,

By way of confirming my grasp of Ancestry's method of source information, I would appreciate a critique of this citation draft (and no, I don't intend to run all my future drafts by you, lol);

Dear EE,

In an earlier thread (http://www.evidenceexplained.com/node/2121) you guided me in crafting a schoolbook on Ancestry citation:
