That still sounds to me like you're creating a numbered list from what is currently just a series of lines and paragraphs. Or else you're trying to do what org footnotes do: automatically link the numbering between the in-text references, and the article list at the end. Maybe try footnotes? If this isn't right, maybe show us a simple example of the text you've got, and what you're hoping to do. Eric
