Usage
While footnotes are normally used to cite other materials, this template can provide a simple link to other articles or web addresses as well. Unlike footnotes it will not display a section at the bottom, rather it just adds a superscript link where used. Up to 10 items can be cited and any item that is not a valid page will be assumed to be a web address.
If a web address uses an equals sign, replace it with {{=}} or else this template will interpret it as a parameter and won't display it properly.
For example:
Asheron has participated in a number of live events through
the years.{{Notes|12/19/08 - All Servers - Dereth's Elite|http://www.thejackcat.com/AC/Culture/Dereth/Elysa.htm}}
displays as:
Asheron has participated in a number of live events through the years.[12/19/08 - All Servers - Dereth's Elite [1]][2]
