dash:The bias surfaced in the Shotwell series 4 —though not obviously.Do not include more than one reference number at the same location (such as 5, 6 ). Instead,use one number <strong>and</strong> include all citations or comments in a single note (see 16.3.5).For aesthetic reasons, do not put note numbers inside or at the end <strong>of</strong> a title, subtitle, orsubhead. If your note applies to the entire chapter, omit the number <strong>and</strong> put an unnumberedfootnote on the first page, be<strong>for</strong>e any numbered notes. If a note applies to a section followinga subhead, put the reference number after the first sentence in the section.16.3.3 Numbering NotesNumber notes consecutively, beginning with 1. If your paper has separate chapters, restarteach chapter with note 1. Do not skip a number or use numbers such as 5a.If you use endnotes <strong>for</strong> source citations but footnotes <strong>for</strong> substantive comments (see16.3.1), do not number the footnotes. Instead, label the first footnote on a page with anasterisk (*). If you have more than one footnote on a page, use superscript symbols in thesequence * † ‡ §.For notes to tables, see 26.2.7.16.3.4 Formatting NotesIndent both footnotes <strong>and</strong> endnotes as you would a paragraph. Begin each note with itsreference number, preferably printed not as a superscript but as regular text. Put a period <strong>and</strong>a space between the number <strong>and</strong> the text <strong>of</strong> the note.If your local guidelines allow it, you may instead use superscripts <strong>for</strong> reference numbers innotes. You should then begin the text <strong>of</strong> each note without an intervening period <strong>and</strong> space.Use this method <strong>for</strong> notes labeled with symbols (see 16.3.3).FOOTNOTES. Begin every footnote on the page on which you reference it. Put a short rulebetween the last line <strong>of</strong> text <strong>and</strong> the first footnote on each page, including any notes that runover from previous pages, even if your word processor doesn't do so automatically. If afootnote runs over to the next page, break it in midsentence, so that readers do not think thenote is finished <strong>and</strong> overlook the part on the next page. If you have more than one footnote ona page, begin each subsequent note on its own line, with a blank line be<strong>for</strong>e it. See figureA.10 <strong>for</strong> a sample page <strong>of</strong> text with footnotes.ENDNOTES. Endnotes should be listed together after the end <strong>of</strong> the text <strong>and</strong> any appendixesbut be<strong>for</strong>e the bibliography. Start each note on a new line, with a blank line between notes.Label the list Notes. If you restart numbering <strong>for</strong> each chapter, add subheadings to distinguishthe notes <strong>for</strong> each chapter: “Chapter 1” <strong>and</strong> so <strong>for</strong>th. See figure A.14 <strong>for</strong> a sample page <strong>of</strong>endnotes.
