How to Filter Out, Blacklist, Exclude, Hide, Block, or Otherwise Avoid Works Tagged With Things You Hate: Advanced Edition by sp_acebuns
Fandoms: AO3 Tags, AO3, Archive of Our Own

Summary
Is your favorite fandom full of fics with tags you hate? Sick of some tropes the rest of your fandom loves? Hate some popular pairings? Need to make sure a triggering topic doesn't come across your screen? Just want a break from works with a certain tag before you dive back into them? Then this is the tutorial for you!
This guide assumes you know the basics of AO3's built-in tagging and filtering system, and will be updated the more I learn about avoiding works based on their tags.
Disclaimer: No system is perfect; no matter which method(s) you use, it's still possible you'll come across content you don't want to see. Keep this in mind, especially if you're trying to avoid triggers.

Summary
This is a live example of how an author can create linked footnotes in their work with only a little bit of HTML and no workskins required. This is best viewed by clicking "Entire Work". While I've included the actual coding in bold and italic once you click "Hide Creator's Style", there's a more detailed explanation here.
EDIT 6/28/17: The third chapter now shows how to use anchor links as an index/table of contents.
