About

Templates {{Right sidenote}}, and {{Left sidenote}} are used to create a text in which notes appear to the side of the text, rather than as footnotes at the end. Both templates are based on {{Sidenote}}.

These templates are compatible with dynamic layouts. Thus, the way notes are rendered in mainspace partly depends on the layout. Index-based CSS can also be used to target the sidenotes using the .wst-sidenote class.

Usage

Usage is as follows:

  • In the Page Namespace, {{Sidenotes begin}} should be placed in the header of the page, and {{Sidenotes end}} in the footer, in order to create margins. (Note: these templates will be deprecated in the future, as css style properties will be imported from the index page)
  • In the main namespace, these templates are no longer necessary.
Parameters for {{Sidenotes begin}}
Parameter Mandatory Definition Default
1 No Unused, temporarily retained for access to 2 —
2 No Width of left and right margin to apply (measured in em values) 11
side No Side of page to place a sidenotes column (options: left, right, both) both

{{Right sidenote}} is used to create a sidenote appearing to the right of the text.

Parameters for {{Right sidenote}}
Parameter Mandatory Definition Default
1 Yes The text to appear at the right, possibly including wiki markup.
2 No The css style of the note

{{Left sidenote}} is used to create a sidenote appearing to the left of the text.

Parameters for {{Left sidenote}}
Parameter Mandatory Definition Default
1 Yes The text to appear at the left, possibly including wiki markup.
