- Note: while this proposal failed to gain traction, a similar system has been implemented as list-defined references.
Because the ref system is structured in a way where citations are noted within the body of the text, editing articles with a high number of refs is difficult.
- If the citations' text can be directly noted in its own section, the body of articles will become easier to edit.
- That is, instead of having lengthy refs making the body of articles highly convoluted, a word/number can link the ref, with the ref noted in its own section, outside the body.
