I'm not sure what I did when using the wikitree sourcer on a profile.  I tried to add an inline citation from FamilySearch. I'm getting "</ref>" showing in the saved profile.  I was getting an error message before I saved it.  Can someone that a look at this profile and tell me what I did incorrectly.

As you currently have an unsaved draft, it's not possible to see the exact error, but I would guess you have too many <ref> there.
Every <ref> tag needs a matching </ref> - likewise every ending </ref> needs its matching starting <ref>

The <ref> was missing at the beginning of the citation and there were two </ref> s at the end,  fixed now.
