Documentation
Features
- Possible to have wiki syntax in the references below, which is useful for hyperlinks.
- Like Wikipedia, you have links to go from the text to the reference and back. 1
Feature request
- It should be possible to have, as an option, the reference list in the template (I don't want to copy the footnotearea plugin on each page).
- Or maybe this should be a wiki page template per category of page? (ex.: if a page is in a category X, it uses the a wiki-page template, and this wiki page template has the footnote plugin at the bottom)
Questions
How can we make it future-proof so people may easily move to a tracker-based system?
It is possible to maintain these references in a tracker: Simple_Reference_Management to be able to eventually become a Bibliography management system (references)Should this be a specialized implementation of a more general "note" plugin?
The general note plugin could have PluginMouseover, Pluginfade and Pluginfootnotes aka cite/ref as descendants. If we do keep separate, let's try to use the same names for the argumentsShould we have the references also available as a mouse-over?
And thus avoiding to scroll down and backup. References at the bottom would remain for printing thoughShould this have any link with anchor & aname plugins?
Shouldn't we try to stay as close as possible to the MediaWiki/Wikipedia syntax?
Wikipedia uses2 :
Syntax uses by Wikipedia for references
<ref>California State University 2007.</ref>
Syntax currently in 3.0 to generate a reference:
{FOOTNOTE()}This is quite an interesting concept{FOOTNOTE}
Syntax uses by Wikipedia to generate the reference list, with option to have 2 colums
{{reflist|2}}
Syntax currently in 3.0 to generate the reference list:
{FOOTNOTEAREA()/}
What other features from Wikipedia should we plan ahead for?

A test
Wikipedia footnotes serve two purposes. First, they are used to add material that explains a point in greater detail, particularly if the explanation would be distracting if written out in the main article. Second, they are used to present citations to reliable sources that support assertions in the main article.3 As explained at Wikipedia:Citing sources, footnoting is one of several alternative ways to present citations.More testing
