.SS Citations in note styles
.PP
Pandoc\[cq]s citation processing is designed to allow you to move
between author-date, numerical, and note styles without modifying the
markdown source.
When you\[cq]re using a note style, avoid inserting footnotes manually.
Instead, insert citations just as you would in an author-date
style\[em]for example,
.IP
.nf
\f[C]
Blah blah [\[at]foo, p. 33].
\f[R]
.fi
.PP
The footnote will be created automatically.
Pandoc will take care of removing the space and moving the note before
or after the period, depending on the setting of
\f[C]notes-after-punctuation\f[R], as described below in Other relevant
metadata fields.
.PP
In some cases you may need to put a citation inside a regular footnote.
Normal citations in footnotes (such as \f[C][\[at]foo, p. 33]\f[R]) will
be rendered in parentheses.
In-text citations (such as \f[C]\[at]foo [p. 33]\f[R]) will be rendered
without parentheses.
(A comma will be added if appropriate.) Thus:
.IP
.nf
\f[C]
[\[ha]1]: Some studies [\[at]foo; \[at]bar, p. 33] show that
frubulicious zoosnaps are quantical. For a survey
of the literature, see \[at]baz [chap. 1].
