Citation style

I propose switching the citation style to Sfn notes, which allow for citing different pages of the same work in separate citations, eliminating the need for the 'rp' template. I think the rp template, especially combined with the AMA style, makes the article hard to read, with unusual small parenthetical numbers between the regular footnotes and prose.

-Casual reader here. I read through the 'voyage' section under 'Lane colony' but I can't quite figure out who was at Puerto Rico, who was at the Outer Banks, and when. Maybe it is obvious to someone more familiar with the subject than I, but I think it could use a tidy up.  <!-- Template:Unsigned --><span class="autosigned" style="font-size:85%;">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:SDavies|SDavies]] ([[User talk:SDavies#top|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/SDavies|contribs]]) 10:06, 6 February 2021 (UTC)</span> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
