#' \code{CITATION} file utilities for Statnet packages (DEPRECATED)
#' 
#' These functions automate citation generation for Statnet Project
#' packages. They no longer appear to work with CRAN and are thus
#' deprecated.
#' 
#' 
#' @param pkg Name of the package whose citation is being generated.
#' @return For \code{statnet.cite.head} and \code{statnet.cite.foot}, an object
#' of type \code{citationHeader} and \code{citationFooter}, respectively,
#' understood by the \code{\link{citation}} function, with package name
#' substituted into the template.
#' 
#' For \code{statnet.cite.pkg}, an object of class \code{\link{bibentry}}
#' containing a 'software manual' citation for the package constructed from the
#' current version and author information in the \code{DESCRIPTION} and a
#' template.
