Is the use of an asterisk and a dagger workable in the following quote which is supplied with a footnote and needs two embedded notes by the editor? (the quotation is much longer so in fact less cluttered than it appears below)

‘The [intellect]* is first of all merely a faculty of the [hu]man-person [podobnie jak właśiwością jego jest wolność].†’

FOOTNOTE: Wojtyła, The Acting Person, 158. [* ‘Mind’ in the English translation, however, ‘umysł’ is used in the original. † Omitted in the English translation but present in the Polish original—Ed.]

    Welcome to EL&U. This is not really a question about the language, but about what orthography your publication will accept, and there is no single right answer there. Adhere to the discipline of your editor, publication, or organization. – choster Feb 02 '21 at 03:07

    I’m voting to close this question on orthographic conventions. As choster says, different authorities (bosses / editors / tutors) will have different 'rules'. – Edwin Ashworth Feb 02 '21 at 14:57
