Template:Footnote
This is a template that emulates the function of the <ref> and <references/> tags. Although this template is commonly used on the wiki to create a list of notes, it is also possible to have multiple lists of footnotes in a single article by using grouped references.
Usage
{{footnote|main|1}}
Will create a footnote tag like this: 1
This should be used in the main text to provide a link to the footnote. Note that the one can be virtually anything, although some characters may need to be escaped (for example, [1] is escaped as {{footnote|main|[1]}}).
{{footnote|note|1|Example footnote}}
Will create this:
1 - Example footnote
This should be used in a list of notes after the main text of an article or paragraph.
