I think a workable solution could be done using javascript.
Basic idea is to call a template and add to a javascript array at each footnote, then display them all at the bottom.
In line with a wiki article would be footnote references such as this:
That would render inline like this (but with the footnotes as superscript)
The final piece would have to be another template call at the end of your article, say
Which would render like

Code:
A great resource on the internet is the wikipedia[template=footnote]name = Wikipedia | url = http://en.wikipedia.org[/template]. You can often find information using google[template=footnote]name = Google | url = http://www.google.com[/template]That would render inline like this (but with the footnotes as superscript)

I'm actually getting pretty close on this now!
http://www.greenandgoldrugby.com/community/wiki/footnote-test/
Two issues, both basic HTML use but they've got me stumped.
My internal links are not working for some reason, far as I can tell they're correct, but they don't link to the place on the same page??
Xenforo is adding [url] BBCode to my links so I need to wrap them in for it to work.
[template=footnote-top][/template]
text [template=footnote-add]name = Google | url = [plain]http://www.google.com[/template] more text [template=footnote-add]name = wiki | url = http://www.wikipedia.org[/template] more [template=footnote-add]name = gagr | url = http://www.greenandgoldrugby.com[/template]
[template=footnote-display][/template]

that was weird, seems I need to pass the entire URL to the href
have found using document.location + "#reference"
seems to work, unless you refresh a page such as
http://www.greenandgoldrugby.com/community/wiki/footnote-test/#fnbackref_1
then the links will point to
http://www.greenandgoldrugby.com/community/wiki/footnote-test/#fnref_2#fnbackref_1
which doesn't work.
Minor though, I'm just about ready to release this, would be nice if there was a way to avoid xenforo parsing URL bbcode onto URLs in the wiki.
