From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This template encapsulates the <references />
tag to show the list of references defined by <ref></ref>
tags, with some formatting. It reduces the font size and has options for columns and groups. References can be defined within the body of the article or within the reference list.

The <ref></ref>
and <references />
tags are part of the Cite.php MediaWiki extension.
{{Reflist}} may be used with {{Refbegin}} and {{Refend}} to format different styles of references.
== Content == Lorem ipsum.<ref>Source name, access date, etc.</ref> Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.<ref>Source name, access date, etc.</ref> == References == {{Reflist}}
== Content == Lorem ipsum. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet. == References == {{refbegin}} * reference 1 * reference 2 {{refend}}
== Content == Lorem ipsum.<ref>Source name, access date, etc.</ref> Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.<ref>Source name, access date, etc.</ref> Lorem ipsum. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet. == References == {{Reflist}} {{Refbegin}} * reference 1 * reference 2 {{Refend}}
The font size should reduce to 90% for most browsers, but may appear to show at 100% for Internet Explorer and possibly other browsers.[1] Note that there is no consensus that a small font size should always be used for references; when normal-sized font is more appropriate on an article, use <references />
instead.
Columns are currently supported only by Gecko-based browsers (such as Mozilla Firefox). See below for more information.
Using {{Reflist|2}}
will create a two-column reference list, and {{Reflist|3}}
will create a three-column list. Three-column lists are inaccessible to users with smaller/laptop monitors and should be avoided.
Using {{Reflist|colwidth=30em}}
will allow the browser to automatically choose the number of columns based on the width of the web browser. Choose a column width that is appropriate for the average width of the references on the page.
If {{Reflist}} is used multiple times without a parameter, each instance will include all of the previously defined references. To force the parser to close previous references, each use of {{Reflist}} must be forced as a new instance by the use of any parameter. Even a undefined parameter such as {{Reflist}}
will force the references to close.
As of June 2008, the footnotes system supports the separation of references into groups. This allows groups for explanatory notes, table references and the like. See Wikipedia:Footnotes#Separating reference lists and explanatory notes.
The general format for the reference tag would be:
<open></open>
And for the reflist:
{{Reflist}}
As of September 2009, references may be defined within {{Reflist}} using |refs=
and invoked within the content. There are new error messages associated with this update, documented at مساعدة:Cite errors. As usual, groups can be used.
Defined references must be used within the body; unused references will show an error message. In text with hundreds of references it's an good idea to name and sort the references in a orderly way. One way is to follow the Havard style, like name = "Author_Date_Publisher" on the form "AuthorLastName_YYYY-MM-DD_Publisher" and sort the references on this key.
This is reference 1.<ref name="refname1" group="groupname"/> This is reference 2.<ref name="refname2" group="groupname"/> This is reference 3.<ref name="refname3" group="groupname"/> {{Reflist|group="groupname"|refs= <ref name="refname1" group="groupname">content1</ref> <ref name="refname2" group="groupname">content2</ref> <ref name="refname3" group="groupname">content3</ref> }}
This is reference 1.[groupname 1] This is reference 2.[groupname 2] This is reference 3.[groupname 3]
Multiple columns are generated by using CSS3, which is still in development; thus only browsers that properly support the multi-column property will show multiple columns.[2][3]
{{Reflist}} uses a CSS rule in MediaWiki:Common.css to set the font size:
.references-small { font-size: 90%;}
These classes are used directly in the template for the columns:
.references-column-count
.references-column-width
These properties are used in the template:
column-count
CSS3 standardcolumn-width:auto
CSS3 standard-moz-column-count
Mozilla CSS extension-moz-column-width
Mozilla CSS extension-webkit-column-count
Webkit CSS extension (disabled)-webkit-column-width
Webkit CSS extension (disabled)By editing your CSS, the personal appearance of the reference list can be customized. From Preferences, select the Appearance tab, then on the selected skin select Custom CSS. After editing and saving, follow the instructions at the top of the page to purge. See Wikipedia:Skin#Customisation (advanced users) for more help.
The font size defaults to 90% of the standard size. To change it, add:
.references-small { font-size: 90%;}
Change 90% to the desired size.
To disable columns, add:
.references-column-count, .references-column-width {
column-count:1 !important;
column-width:auto !important;
-moz-column-count:1 !important;
-moz-column-width:auto !important;
-webkit-column-count:1 !important;
-webkit-column-width:auto !important;
}
Similarly, to force all reference lists to a number of columns, change the number.
There have been a number of requests to add functionality for a collapsible or scrolling reference list. These requests have not been fulfilled to due to issues with readability, accessibility, and printing. The applicable guidelines are at .
The links between the inline cite and the reference list do not work when the reference list is enclosed in a collapsed box.
