Template:Reflist

Template documentation (for the above template, sometimes hidden or invisible)

Description

A wrapper for <references/> to make a few formats more convenient. This includes support for multi-column lists and collapsible reference lists.

NOTE: Only use this template if you're using one or more of the added features. In particular, the parameterless invocation {{reflist}} should never be used in place of <references/>

Parameters

• First unnamed parameter:

column-count: a natural number specifying fixed columns into which the reference list is to be rendered. Example: |2|.

column-width: a typographic unit of measurement such as em, specifying the width for the reference list columns. Example: |30em|.

• refs: used with named references (e.g., <ref name=name />); it specifies a list of some or all named references used in the article.
• group: identifies by name the subset of references to be rendered; the value should correspond to that used inline, e.g., {{Reflist|group=groupname}} renders all references with groupname as the group name (<ref group=groupname>).
• collapsible: if yes, the reference list will automatically be placed within a collapsible
• collapsed: if yes, the reference list will automatically be placed with a collapsible that is collapsed by default. Implies and overrides collapsible.
• title: an optional title to add to the citations list. If not set, no title will be added unless collapsible or collapsed is yes
