Description

The "Wheaton Lexomics" link in the footer could be styled so that it is more obviously a link. This would help users arrive at information about how to cite Lexos (this suggestion is coming from one such user).

Another option is to add an "About" link in the menu so that users have a more obvious way of finding the "About Lexos" information that is currently only accessible through "Help".

Or both solutions could be implemented.
