I listed all my sources as footnotes in "References", and now there's
far too many footnotes; especially when I cite some sources more than
once. I've been considering renaming "References" to "Footnotes"
and
using it only for extraordinary claims, and moving everything else to a
sources section ("References"). Then there'll be Footnotes, References,
See also, Further reading, and External links.
I dunno. Have a look at some Featured Articles - to get through FAC
these days, you need the metric shitload of references. A lot of people
seem to put them <small>, which helps the less-interested eye gloss over
them reading the article.
