I believe this page can be supported by a general reference. There is nothing controversial or likely to be contested here. Putting the same inline citation at the end of every paragraph is pointless as you are basically saying that every paragraph is supported by the source. A general reference does the same thing. An inline cite would only be required if there are specific statements that require individual support from different sources.
