Usage
Use this template to create a reference list in an article.
If used with no parameters, it will simply produce a reference list in a small font.
Multiple columns
Using {{reflist|2}} will create a two-column reference list, and {{reflist|3}} will create a three-column list.
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's appropriate for the average width of the references on the page.
Note: multiple columns currently render properly only in Mozilla Firefox,[1] though the feature is included in CSS3, so it should work for a larger number of browsers in the future.[2]
Three options for usage
Option 1 (only specific references) - see The Rule
== Content == Lorem ipsum.<ref>Source name, access date, etc.</ref> Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.<ref>Source name, access date, etc.</ref> == References == {{reflist}}
Option 2 (only general references) - see National Publications
== Content == Lorem ipsum. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet. == References == {{refbegin}} * general reference 1 * general reference 2 {{refend}}
Option 3 (both specific and general references) - see Elephant
== 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}} * general reference 1 * general reference 2 {{refend}}
