Template:Reflist-talk/doc

This template is a version of {{Reflist}} designed for use outside of articles, for example on talk pages. Like, {{Reflist}}, it creates a list of all references that have been defined with <ref>...</ref> tags on the page above the template (but below any other instances of a reflist template). The list is displayed inside a bordered box and with a title ("References" by default) that is not formatted as as a section heading.

It is most useful when the list of references needs to appear close to the text where the references are used, for example at the end of a section or right after a quoted passage.

If using it at the end of a section, consider adding a hidden comment to help editors keep the wikitext in the correct place:

  • {{Reflist-talk}}<!-- Template:Reflist-talk creates a section-level reference list box. Please add comments and references for this section's discussion above this template. When a new discussion begins, the new section will be added below this template. Add a new {{Reflist-talk}} at the end of that section if needed. -->
