 * I just posted that greeting (it's a standard Wikipedia "welcome message") after seeing your edit of Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee and discovering that it was your first edit as a registered user. I was curious because of the way that you inserted citations for the text you added -- which was unusual for WP (although unexceptional for print media). So I thought you might like to know that there's a page explaining a number of better ways to format citations on WP. If you're wondering, I think the primary reason for using one of the formats that have been developed is because WP is dynamic -- it's constantly changing -- so the footnotes need to be dynamic also. That way, the numbering changes automatically to reflect changes in the text, as needed. (Hope that explanation makes sense to you...) Anyway, best of luck with your editing!
