Create footnotes for Deki pages

    Table of contents
    1. 1. Template:Ref
    2. 2. Template:Note
    3. 3. Usage

    To add footnotes to Deki pages, create two templates: Ref and Note.  The Ref template is used to add a reference to a footnote, while the Note template is used for the footnote itself.

    Template:Ref

    The HTML-source of this page contains the following code (example):

    <small><sup class="plainlinksneverexpand" id="{{'ref_' .. $0}}">{{web.link('#endnote_' .. $0)}}</sup></small>

    Template:Note

    The HTML-source of this page contains the following code (example):

    <cite id="{{'endnote_' .. $0}}">{{web.link("#ref_" .. $0,"^")}}</cite>
    

    In stead of the symbol ^ (between quotation marks), indicating a hyperlink back to the text, one can use other characters, for instance .

    Example 2 generates a footnote number, a dot and the arrow up:

    <cite id="{{'endnote_' .. $0}}"></cite>{{web.link("#ref_" .. $0, $0 .. ". ↑")}}

    Usage

    Invocation of the templates looks as follows:

    This is a text with a footnote marker{{template.Ref("1")}}.
    {{template.Note("1")}} This is the description for the footnote.
