Every para in your sample XML has a note element on the following
sibling axis, therefore the node set following-sibling::note has
always a member and the predicate is always true. You want to match
only para elements where the immediately following element is a
note element (note the different formulation). This translates to
  <xsl:template match="para[following-sibling::*[1][self::note]]">
(I hope)
BTW a leading // in a match pattern is redundant for all practical
purposes.
