u need to identify where it’s located, so someone knows from where to get it.

like a photo, it needs to reside “somewhere” ... so you can make a link to it...so we can get at it...

here are some ideas

Thanks.

This file hosting thingy may be more than I am willing to commit to.

People may just have to cut and paste my text and make their own.

I used .5 margins all around and Verdana 13.5 pt. for the heading and Arial 12 pt. for the 17 sets. I capped and centered the heading. I went with:
STOP COVID MISINFORMATION FROM SPREADING:
MYTHS THE ILL-INFORMED BELIEVE ABOUT THE DANGER OF COVID-19 AND FACTS TO REFUTE THEM

I used bold for the words “Myth” and “Fact” and single-spaced the sentences containing them and double spaced between each set.

I put the numbers (1., 2., etc.) of each set flush with the outside margin and tab-spaced once from the enumerations to begin the actual text.

I ended up putting the sources in an endnote section. I just put a number for each as a parenthetical endnote after the period in the sentences that were “Facts.” Like this. (1)

It was just easier that way rather than fooling around with the citation tool. And I think it makes the document look cleaner and less crowded.

I put both the parenthetical endnote reference and endnoted sources in 9 pt. font.

I was able to fit all 17 sets on two pages so that the flyer could be made on one piece of paper, front to back. I had to tighten up phrasing here and there to get some text that took up two or three lines due to a word or two going on the next line to shrink back to one or two lines.

It doesn’t look half bad, if I do say so myself—on the screen anyway. I don’t feel like fighting with the printer tonight. I don’t think the end result will look too crowded.

As far as doing the endnotes, I copy and pasted all the sources into the endnotes section that takes up about half of the 2nd page and then went back and deleted them from under the Myth-Fact sets—after making sure their numbered endnote matched the parenthetical numbered endnote. I had moved the order of the sets some and a couple actually have two sources.

Anyway, this is how I did it if you want to make your own but don’t want to flail too much and want a bit of a formula.
