[edit] References vs Footnotes

References are perfectly valid on wikipedia and are the more common compared to Footnotes, there is no need to change sections in articles to footnotes. Peachey88 (Talk Page | Contribs) 09:54, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

See Wikipedia:Footnotes, in which it refers to the section as being titled as either "References" or "Notes". If there's been a wikipedia discussion somewhere (as opposed to your opinion that it should be that way), please cite it here. Thanks. Quaeler (talk) 11:48, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
I am going to revert Washington Township back to references. All the other municipalities of Lycoming County and probably most of, if not all, the articles about the municipalities use the term references over endnotes. Dincher (talk) 21:35, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
