This is a brief introduction to yet another footnote proposal. Please see other articles listed at the end of this description to understand the context.
Please note that this proposal is not a primary footnoting system proposal.

The system is also designed to be very easily convertable to automatic numbering if automatic numbering systems improve in future.
