Please read [[Help:Footnotes]] and [[Help:Shortened footnotes]] first, as this guide builds upon the methods described on those help pages. [[WP:REFGROUP]] is of particular importance.
==Note formats==
There are several ways to include notes:
===Footnotes mixed with explanatory notes===
This example uses list-defined references mixed with explanatory notes.
{{markup

==Notes==
{{reflist|refs=
<ref name=Foot01>{{cite book|author=Miller|title=The Sun|publisher=Oxford|year=2005|page=23|mode=cs2}}. But Miller points out that the Sun is not as large as some other stars.</ref>
<ref name=Foot02>The Moon goes by other names, such as Selena - see, for example {{cite book|author=Jones|title=The Solar System|publisher=MacMillan|year=2005|page=623|mode=cs2}}.</ref>
<ref name=Foot03>{{cite book|author=Brown|title=The Moon|year=2006|publisher=Penguin|page=46|mode=cs2}}. Historically the Moon was not always considered to be large, see, for example {{cite book|author=Peterson|title=Astronomy|publisher=MacMillan|year=2005|page=623|mode=cs2}}.</ref>

===Footnotes with separate explanatory notes===
This example creates a separate notes section by using group names.
