Template:Note/doc

This is a documentation page for Template:Note.

This template is used to create reference-style footnotes. Its versatility allows for multiple note groups and calling previously-created notes in the same page.

Any pages that use this template must use Template:Notelist as well.

Usage

Creating a new note for only one use:

{{Note|This is a single footnote.}}

Creating a new note that can be used again in the same page:

{{Note|name=Note1|This is a reusable footnote.}}

Calling a previously-created note:

{{Note|name=Note1}}

Creating a new note with a group specification that can be used again:

{{Note|group=a|name=Note2|This is a reusable lower-alpha footnote.}}

Calling a previously-created note with a group specification:

{{Note|group=a|name=Note2}}

Parameters

Parameter	Required?	Usage
name	No	An identifier to call this note in the same page.
group	No	Set this to use a different display than "note #" when the note is shown on the page. If using name, this parameter must be equal to all other name-equivalent notes. If using this, a supported value must be used: group=a renders notes as "a", "b", "c", etc.
<unnamed>	No	The text displayed in the footnote itself. Omit this if the template is being used to reuse a note already made elsewhere on the page with the same name.
