In Markdown, it goes like [displayed text](hyperlink "tooltip alt text"); in HTML I think it’s an additional argument to <a> or <href> which goes title="tooltip alt text", so for my example above:
[displayed text](hyperlink "tooltip alt text")
<a>
<href>
title="tooltip alt text"
Markdown:
[paranoid archiving for Internet links](http://www.gwern.net/Archiving%20URLs “‘Archiving URLs’, gwern 2013”)
HTML:
<a href="http://www.gwern.net/Archiving%20URLs“ rel=”nofollow” title=”'Archiving URLs', gwern 2013”>paranoid archiving for Internet links</a>
This should probably be added to the official formating help page of lesswrong.
