Why doesn't my source section look right?

I just edited Jackson-6860   and the source section doesn't look right.  What causes those references with a dot to be listed under the sources?

In the Sources section, those citations placed as "inline" citations within the biography will appear before those which were not placed inline. This is normal.

But, in your case, you have the source citations listed as both "inline" citations and non-inline citations. That should not be done. Just use them as one or the other. If you use a source citation "inline," then delete it from the sources section while in edit mode. After you save, it will only show up once in the Sources section.
Thank you!!  That profile looks better now!
Yes, very nice!

I fixed that for her, but I think that her concern is the footnotes appearing under the header sources.
