This documentation is transcluded from Template:Reflist/doc. Changes can be proposed in the talk page.

This template provides formatting and organizational features for footnotes. It encapsulates the <references/> tag used by the Extension:Cite to show the list of references as defined by <ref> tags. It adds support for sizing the column width, groups.

TemplateData

This template displays the list of footnotes at the end of an article and provides additional formatting and organizing options. After hitting "Apply changes" and turning back to VE read mode, you will not see the references list. After hitting "Publish page" and turning back to normal read mode the reference list will reappear with the changes applied, see T53146.
