Confluence macro for specifying a reference, source of the quotation, etc.?

Is there a way in Confluence for specifying a reference to a text passage — for example, to provide the source of the quoted text, in a similar way as is done on Wikipedia, so that it's rendered like this:

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet1

[down the page]


1 Cicero

Ideally, the subscript "1" should be an internal hyperlink

I believe this plugin may help: https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/com.adaptavist.confluence.footnotes

The footnotes plugin allows you to quickly and easily add footnote references to your wiki pages.

You can:

  • Define Footnotes - Define any number of footnotes throughout your content
  • Display Footnotes - Display a table of footnotes anywhere in the page
  • Quickly move between content and footnotes with a click of the mouse
