Have you ever really wondered what them tiny little numbers are in Wiki articles?

Turns out they are called "citations", us teachers insist the kids include them all the time, especially when they didn't compose anything but instead just copied a body of pre-existing text entire.

The people who provided the original info are called the "Virginia Historical Society" (http://www.vahistorical.org/), they claim to be a credible source.

Might be infiltrated by Yankees by now though, who knows?

Some of those citations you see on wiki are highly suspect too and why nobody who is in search of real source material puts much stock in them.
