===== Pop-up bibliographical footnotes on All Queries pages: Copy-paste trick ===== Footnotes (bibliographical footnotes or other kinds of notes in footnotes) on “See All Queries”/All Queries pages work differently than on other kinds of pages: they open as pop-ups at the bottom of the page instead of triggering a jump page anchor link to an all-footnotes space (there is no all-footnotes space at the bottom of an All Queries page). This needs to happen for All Queries pages so that the various fields in individual Info pages displayed there don’t trigger <span style="color:#e83e8c;"><nowiki><references /></nowiki></span> that conflict with the numbered order of footnotes at the bottom of a page. If you need to copy text from a pop-up footnote on an All Queries page, here’s how: On a Mac: # Click the footnote. # Select the text, but before lifting your finger off the mouse at the end of your selection, add the control key (control+click over your selected text). # A context menu should appear with the option to “Copy”; click “Copy.” On a PC: # Click the footnote. # Highlight the text. The text will automatically be copied. # To paste, use a middle click.
