Credit lines as footnotes

"Credit" lines sometimes appear at the bottom of the first page of an article, with the one in this example being the copyright, and we need to do something to separate it from the article. A block quote won't do that, so some project managers request that we format this sort of information as a footnote, even though it isn't referenced in the text, and mention the lack of an anchor in a [**note]. If the project comments don't address it, ask for guidance; if none is forthcoming, use this method or the one in the next example, which shows an alternative way of handling similar bottom-of-page information when a natural separation exists on the page.

Major divisions

The masthead and the first article below it both are major divisions, so precede each with four blank lines and follow the article's heading information with two blank lines.
