|link=yes/no (defaults to "no")
|dotted=yes/no (defaults to "yes")
}}
Examples
- {{H:title|Hello|example}} produces example.

Accessibility issue
This template uses a hover attribute, which is discouraged by Wikipedia:Manual of Style (accessibility)#Text.
For marking abbreviations specifically, please use {{abbr}} instead, because it is accessible to screen reader users.
