Help:Footnotes and references

Footnotes and reference lists are vitally important to the quality of a wiki article. In order to force a footnote to appear immediately after a quotation or stated fact, use this format:

Text that needs a note.<ref>This note cites a source or explains something in the text.</ref>

It appears as a superscript number in square brackets immediately following the text, like this:

Text that needs a note.^[1]
