User:SMcCandlish/Underlining in Wikipedia

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Underlining for tooltips and other metadata purposes in Wikipedia is more widely supported than most seem to think. I'm going to start logging everything I find that is doing it.

{{IPAc-en}} /ˌæləˈbæmə/
{{IPAc-it}} [itaˈljaː.no] – changed
<abbr>...</abbr> WHO
{{Abbr}} LOL
{{glossary link internal}} Notes

Notes[edit]

This is a rather well-standardized style used on innumerable blogs and other websites, for a wide variety of metadata, including both mouseover pop-up tooltips, and tag links, and in-page links as distinct from links to "content proper" external to the page.
