Please do not remove PG references. It is used as a reliable source in over 5,000 articles. If you think it is unreliable, please develop consensus on the Political Graveyard talk page. If the consensus is that it is unreliable, I will remove the reference myself from this article. The ad hoc removal from articles that you are editing is not helpful. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) (talk) 03:33, 18 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
About footnotes, see WP:Inline citation. "Many Wikipedia articles contain inline citations: they are required for Featured Articles, Good Articles, and A-Class Articles. Show me a guideline that requires inline citation (footnotes) in stubs, start class, and short bios, and I will add them in all my articles myself. Kraxler (talk) 16:17, 18 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
You are welcome to use any citation format you prefer, but if you are not using in-line I am free to tag them, so I know which ones I need to go back to and move them to in-line citation. The tag reads: "its sources remain unclear because it lacks inline citations". Your method requires the reader to figure out which reference belongs to which fact. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) (talk) 16:25, 18 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
That's a cinch, a three-year old child could figure that out, please don't worry, Mr. Norton. Leave it untagged, and make a note of it somewhere else, I suggest a handwritten list... Kraxler (talk) 14:22, 19 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
