The first unnamed parameter is displayed as the content of the footnote. Note that if the note's content contains an "=" character, a reference error will be displayed; precede the content with |1= (or one of its aliases, |text=, |reference=, or |content=) to fix the error.

The following explanation is transcluded from Help:Footnotes#Footnotes: predefined groups. Help:Footnotes
