Hello,

is it recommendet to use the sup element to point to footnotes -may be with
an class extension or without-, like below:

<article>
<p>text text text<sup class="footnotes">*</sup>

<footer>
* bla bla bla
</footer>
</article>


Second question, is it recommendet to use the mark element similar to usage
of permanent markers in books, also probably with class-Attributes.
The text is german, but do not care, think of the content of article is
similar to a site of a book, and the footer is the below part of the same
site:


<style> .notizen{background: anyNeonColor;}<style>
<article>
  <blockquote cite="http://t3n.de/news/html5-fertig-575078/">
    <h2>Der schönste Tag eures Lebens: W3C stellt HTML5 fertig<h2>
    <p>... ... ...</p>
    <p><mark class="notizen">Mit der Standardisierung von HTML5 hat
sich das Leben von Entwicklern schlagartig vereinfacht *</mark>,
        und eine neue Ära wurde eingeleitet.</p>
    <time datetime="2014-10-29">29.10.2014</time>
  </blockquote>
  <footer>
    <p>Entweder hat der Verfasser dieses Artikels keinen blassen Schimmer
        was er da schreibt oder ich habe etwas verpasst!!!<p>
  </footer>
</article>




Please give us much more examples for usage scenario

or other relevant docs.



I would be glad for a response, even a short one.


Thanks
