Summary of feature request
Add a validation rule (Document check) to identify incorrectly formatted chapter numbers in citations within footnotes. They should be “c. [num]” with a singe space between the chapter abbreviation and the number, e.g. “c. 3” or “c. 25”.
Orignal user description
This story is to add an advisory document check for footnote text.
The error should be triggered when drafters cite UKPGA chapter numbers in footnotes as “c.[XX]” instead of “c. [XX]”. For example, “2022 c.16” should be “2022 c. 16”.
Suggested warning text: “A citation of a UKPGA chapter number should be in the format "c. XX", with a space between the chapter abbreviation and the number.”
