If you're all this worried about it, why not contact Family Search and ask them how to cite Family Search. They'll be delighted to tell you, and I'm sure they'll be more than delighted to spend the time and detail on the matter that you all are devoting to it!

The transcription shows the following citation details: "England Marriages, 1538-1973 ," index, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/NNKK-T4K : accessed 31 January 2015), Samuel Page and Elizabeth Blythe, 26 Oct 1800; citing Ludham, Norfolk, England, reference item 7; FHL microfilm 1,911,695. Which RM source should I be using to get this result? I couldn't find anything that looked similar. Thanks.

FamilySearch does tell you how they want you to cite each item. Their model citation for the very record you're viewing is at the bottom of the page. That doesn't mean you have to do it that way, of course! And it assumes one source per record. I prefer one source per individual database. Some might want one source for the whole of FamilySearch.
