--- Comment #8 from Dieter <dgp-m...@gmx.de> ---
I just had a look at CMOS 17th edition. It describes ythe combination of
symbols as footnotes and numbers as endotes (14.49). Guidelines in 14.25 are
not clear enough I think, but could be interpreted that it is possible to use
symbols in one article of a book and numbers in another (but if I would be the
weditor, I would try to avoid it).
14.25
Sequencing of note numbers and symbols. Notes, whether footnotes
or endnotes, should be numbered consecutively, beginning with 1,
throughout each article and for each new chapter-not throughout an entire
book unless the text has no internal divisions. Where only a handful
of footnotes appear in an entire book or, perhaps, just one in an article,
symbols may be used instead of numbers (see also 14.24) [...] For using a
combination of numbers and symbols for two sets of notes, see 14.49-51. For
notes to tables and other nontextual matter, which are usually handled
independently of the notes to the text, see 3.76-80.
