Template:Abbr
This is the HTML5 abbr tag used to provide additional information, without disrupting the flow of a page. It exists as a MediaWiki template only because of a bug with the other templates. It would be used as such:
This website is about {{abbr|MSAs|motorway service areas}}
.
This template creates a message that appears when you hover over the text. It's designed for explaining acronyms. Be aware that it doesn't work on mobiles.
