## Summary
Previouls where ALL whitespace (and square brackes) removed from the
footnote link text, however some link texts are multiworded, like "`turn
to 252`" which were truncated into "`turnto252`", (an example from the
first book "Flight from the Dark" of the Lone Wolf book series by Joe
Dever, see [link](https://www.projectaon.org/en/Main/FlightFromTheDark))
* This change will only remove whitespaces from the beginning and end of
the string
so "` [ 12 ] `" will become "`12`" just like before, and "` turn to 252
`" will become "`turn to 252`".
