قالب:Footnote/doc

 Usage

This template will make any text in it appear in super script ^{like this} (generated with {{footnote|like this}}). It is intended to be used as a citation tag so that a footnote can be added to an article like the number one at the end of this sentence.¹

Then at some point below a list can be hand generated like this:

1. This is the footnote relating to the above citation tag.

 Superseded

The usage of this template has now been superseded by method described in Wikipedia:footnotes, which will automatically adjust the numbering in the list of footnotes as footnote citations are inserted and deleted from the article.

If for some reason there is a need to group footnotes into separate areas, for example under a table instead of with other footnotes at the end of a document, then this is achieved through the use of a group tag.

A section containing a table

This is a demonstration table

first column	second column
Here is some tabular information.	The superscript in the preceding table cell was generated using <ref group=t>A table footnote</ref>, as was the superscript at the end of this entry.

table footnotes

Here is a limited list of table footnotes generated using {{reflist|group=t}}

One of many following sections

Please note that the letter "t" (for table) was only selected for the group=t for demonstration purposes, and that that it can be with any alpha or alpha-numeric string, a common choice is "nb". Each differnt group name generates a new grouping that will need a separate {{reflist}}.
