+Simple Footnotes
+================
+
+A Pelican plugin to add footnotes to blog posts.
+
+When writing a post or page, add a footnote like this:
+
+    Here's my written text[ref]and here is a footnote[/ref].
+
+This will appear as, roughly:
+
+Here's my written text<sup>1</sup>
+
+ 1. and here is a footnote ↩
+
+Inspired by Andrew Nacin's [Simple Footnotes WordPress plugin](http://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-footnotes/).
+
+Requirements
+============
+
+Needs html5lib, so you'll want to `pip install html5lib` before running.
+
+Should work with any content format (ReST, Markdown, whatever), because
+it looks for the `[ref]` and `[/ref]` once the conversion to HTML has happened.
