How to add footnotes and in-line notes - SparklyShinyMagpie - Chapter 1 - SparklyShinyMagpie

This page (chapter 1) is designed to show you how various footnote formats will look in your finished work. Try them out, and determine which one you like best. The following pages (chapters) provide code and instruction.

Recommendation: put the RETURN code at the start of the paragraph. By returning to the full paragraph, it's much less disorienting for the reader. Personally, I like seeing the lines leading up to the footnote rather than being returned to just below the footnote link -- then I have to scroll back up to determine where I was before I ended up at the footnote. I'm going to Lorem ipsum the rest of the page to create text blocks so I don’t have to actually write content - we just need text to take up space to test the code.

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur. Excepteur sint occaecat cupidatat non proident, sunt in culpa qui officia deserunt mollit anim id est laborum. You don't need the brackets on either side of the superimposed number -- it just helps set it off a bit. You can always use text here if the number is too small to see. I've added an example to this link.^{Note 2}
