	Wikipedia:Footnotes - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A footnote is a note placed at the bottom of a page of a document that comments on, and may cite a reference for, a part of the main text.
		Footnotes are sometimes useful for relevant text that would distract from the main point if embedded in the main text, yet are helpful in explaining a point in greater detail.
		Footnotes are an excellent way to cite sources, but they are not the only way; some articles use inline links instead, or Harvard referencing.

	Footnote - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A footnote is a note of text placed at the bottom of a page in a book or document.
		A footnote is normally flagged by a superscript number following that portion of the text the note is in reference to.
		Endnotes are similar to footnotes, but differ in that rather than appearing at the foot of the particular page, they are collected together at the end of the chapter or at the end of the work.

	The Decline and Fall of Footnotes
		According to some, the use of footnotes has actually been in retreat for much of the 20th century: While the economic considerations may be recent, the aesthetic ones are quite old.
		At their worst, footnotes can be a repository for self-important erudition, a sign of too much research and too little analysis.
		Footnotes gave birth--after an extended gestation, mind you--to the hypertext links that are the vis vitae, the life force, of the Internet.

	How to Write Footnotes and Endnotes in MLA Style

		Each footnote has a target of '#_ftn[x]' (where [x] is the number of the footnote), and each one has a back reference link with a target of '#_ftnref[x]'.

		In print, footnotes are used two ways: 1) To cite reference material, or to give credit for particular ideas, 2) to extend the argument of a particular passage, which gives the reader more information without breaking up the flow of the main text.
		I think footnoting in blog posts would be nice for the second use I outline above; That is, to extend the argument of a particular statement without interrupting the flow of the main text.
		Footnoting in blog posts is really odd to me. Most of the time I feel like blog posts have the same writing style as footnotes: informative but, for the most part, short and in reference to something else written on the web.

	Daring Fireball: About the Footnotes
		In print, implementing footnotes is rather straightforward: put the note references in the text, then place the notes themselves in smaller type at the bottom of the pages where the references occur.
		You can do this because you have some short-term spatial memory of where the footnote reference was — and all you have to do is get close, visually, and your eyes will quickly spot the superscript footnote reference.
		At the end of each footnote, I’ve included a link back to the spot in the text where the note is referenced.
