Module:Hatnote inline

This module is rated as ready for general use. It has reached a mature form and is thought to be bug-free and ready for use wherever appropriate. It is ready to mention on help pages and other Wikipedia resources as an option for new users to learn. To reduce server load and bad output, it should be improved by sandbox testing rather than repeated trial-and-error editing.

This module produces hatnote-style notes ≠ self-references and notes-to-reader – usually to related articles or a section/anchor at the same page. It does this inside a <span></span>, instead of the <div></div> used by Module:Hatnote. It implements the {{hatnote inline}} meta-template.
