To create tooltips in your wiki, you can simply use the info function that is included in Semantic MediaWiki.

This is a tooltip.

There is an extension ^[1] that allows you to add tooltips via tag or parser function.

Using the tag like this

<tooltip text="body text" x=xoffset y=yoffset>tooltip text</tooltip>

produces ?UNIQab115884f90c6e0b-tooltip-00000005-QINU? errors

Trying the template and parser function approach produces fatal errors because methods in the Parser class have changed.
