Thread:Project:Support desk/How to reorder links in the footer and include HTML?

Site info: MediaWiki 1.20.0 PHP 5.3.15 (cgi-fcgi) MySQL 5.5.23-55

I followed the guide on Manual:Footer to add a new link to the footer, but it is shown at the end of the links, rather than at the start where I would like it to be, is there anyway I can reorder them?

I have also noticed that MediaWiki:Wikimedia-copyright uses HTML to add a link, however, when I try and do this it does not work, is anything specific needed to be able to use HTML in the footer?
