I see you're struggling with the references, so here's a quick how-to: in order to display a footnote, type <nowiki><ref>The source</ref></nowiki> where you want the footnote. Also see [[:Template:HM]] for shortcuts. In order to display a general reference, do not edit the "References" section. Instead, edit the entire page, and type the reference below the "<nowiki>{{references}}</nowiki>" at the bottom. If you have any more questions, feel free to ask. -- {{User:Ederchil/sig}} 08:19, 21 June 2009 (UTC)
