Is there a section of an article that you think needs more explanation but do not want to make the section longer? Maybe the explanation would be useful for the new patron, but not the seasoned patron. You can solve this dilemma by creating a footnote. The patron then can click on the footnote icon and go to it.

<p>Footnotes are created by using <nowiki><ref></nowiki> tages like so: <nowiki><ref></nowiki> Additional information<nowiki></ref></nowiki>. Place this coding following the place in the sentence or elsewhere where you want to link to the footnote. Then where you want the footnote to appear, install this template: <nowiki>{{reflist}}</nowiki>. Footnotes are very useful, particularly for the new patron. Use them freely.
