Could you clean up those endnotes? They may work on a static paper, but in the electronic format, they can be lost/messed up as people add/delete/move comments around. Most are ok, but a few are problematic---and it's the problematic ones that I'm concerned about. Eg does Il mean ibid/same as last source?? Also where you are simply quoting, citing a page or introduction it unclear as to the source Balloonman 18:50, 18 August 2007 (UTC) reply

ll means "line". Hmmm. I don't say the author or title if it is already said in the main text. Is that what you're referring to? I can see how that could be a problem as editing continued... Wrad 19:02, 18 August 2007 (UTC) reply
