Template:Efn

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

{{efn}} is used, together with {{notelist}}, to create explanatory notes.

Usage

{{efn| Footnote text }}

{{efn|name=Name text|Footnote text}}

|name=:

Sets a standard reference name per WP:NAMEDREFS. The group name is always set to lower-alpha, thus the link labels are styled as lowercase Latin letters. However, this is not required because identical footnote markers are automatically identified and consolidated into a single footnote.

Remember that "=" cannot appear in an unnamed template parameter and "|" cannot appear in any template parameter. For "|", {{!}} can be used. For "=", {{=}} can be used or the parameter can be named 1= explicitly:

{{efn|1=Converting at a rate of Kr 20 = £1.}}
