Footnotes
editHi. I see by your edits on Robert Crull that you are baffled by how to place footnotes in Wikipedia. I can completely sympathize as I struggled to figure t out when I first tried. Wikipedia:Footnotes provides some basic information. The gist of it that you simply enclose your reference in reference tags placed immediately in the main text body like this: <ref>insert reference here</ref>. The wiki software will automatically create a reference number and place the citation in the reference section. I hope this helps, and please feel free to ask me if you have any questions. Regards. -- Whpq (talk) 21:21, 22 April 2010 (UTC)
