!Important Warning

Don't have multiple notes with the exact same content. Then only the first instance will work. However, a labelnote and a normal note can work together even if they have the same content. But multiple labelnotes that are named the exact same with the exact same contents run into the same problem.

Notes are useful to add tangential remarks, without cluttering up the main text. Those who aren’t interested can skip it easily. The more curious can find out what is says by clicking on it.

The wiki software seems to insert a space after the "note" text when rendered, so if you care about that kind of thing, don't put a space after the closing tag.


Added DiffLines:

The wiki software inserts a space after the "note" text when rendered. However, it does not insert a space after the expanded text. So if the note is in the middle of a sentence, it will appear to have an extra space until expanded. Fortunately, it's barely noticeable, and even less so if the note is at the end of a sentence.

! Technical Info



To see the note's or labelnote's hidden text, simply click on the visible text.

Because it isn’t immediately visible, those who aren’t necessarily interested in what the hidden text says don’t have to be bogged down by all that extra information which would otherwise, probably, clog the article. However, those that are curious as to what the note says can find out by clicking on it.

Please exercise judgment when adding a note. [[TropesAreTools They can be useful]], but remember also that [[TropesAreNotGood they can just as easily be abused]]. Too many notes on an article can easily result in FootnoteFever. Use with extreme caution.

In addition, there is an old markup called a hottip. [=[[hottip:*:They look like this.]]=] They are no longer working properly -- sometimes not appearing at all -- and as such are being phased out. If you see a hottip on a wiki page, please either integrate the text into the article, or replace them with the note or labelnote markup, as appropriate.
