I have a single org file that represents a collection of articles;

following [fn:3] in the any article, for example, will take me to
[fn:3] of the first article's footnotes. What's the best way
around this, so that each article will use its own footnotes
section?

I just increment the footnotes across all the articles. So, for example, if article 1 has footnotes 1 and 2, article 2 will continue from footnote number 3. The beauty is that if you export article 2, it will auto-reset the footnote reference to number 1.

The key is to not manually number the footnotes and let C-c C-x f (bound to org-footnote-action) do its thing.

Hope that helps.
