* '''Footnotes''': There are two ways to make footnotes. The first is to use the cite web template here[http://conservapedia.com/Template:Cite_web], which takes more time because you must paste the template and tags. The second is to just code the footnote yourself using MLA or APA style. I personally prefer APA style myself but it's a matter of preference. To use APA style within a footnote, just use the following format:
<pre>
<ref>LastName, FirstInitial (Year, Month Day). [ArticleURL ArticleText]. ''PublishingOrganization''.</ref>
For example, <ref name=spivak>Spivak, Todd (2008, February 28). "[http://www.houstonpress.com/2008-02-28/news/barack-obama-screamed-at-
me/ Barack Obama and Me]." ''Houston Press''.</ref>
For sourcing a journal, use the following format: <ref>LastName, FirstInitial (Year, Month Day). [ArticleURL ArticleText],
Volume(Number), pages. ''JournalName''.</ref> More information about APA style formatting can be found here.[http://blog.apastyle.org/apastyle/2010/11/how-to-cite-something-you-found-on-a-website-in-apa-style.html][http://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/560/06/][http://www.apastyle.org/learn/quick-guide-on-references.aspx#Websites][http://www.studygs.net/citation.htm]
Since we are actually citing online material online, I do not post the URL out as "Retrieved from..." but place it as a
link for the article title.
