Pages generated by this module have Pod2Wiki markers inserted. These markers are HTML comments that start and end every {{API:PodLink|file=perlpod|package_name=perlpod|section=|text=Plain Old Documentation}} (POD) section. For example a POD synopsis section will look like this:
 
  
  &lt;!-- Pod2Wiki=head_synopsis --&gt;
