Just wanted to let everyone know to check to see if the reference you're using is already listed in the bibliography section. If it is, then just add the shortened footnote in the content. If it's not, then add the reference in the bibliography as well as the sfn in the content. Adding duplicate references in the bibliography cause errors to happen in the citations.--[[User:Natecole54|Natecole54]] ([[User talk:Natecole54|talk]]) 15:18, 27 November 2023 (EST)
