Usage

Use this template to create a reference list in an article (unlike Template:Reference, Reflist doesn't include the References heading, thereby making the syntax easier to read). For Example:

== Content ==

Lorem ipsum.<ref>Source name, access date, etc.</ref>

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.<ref>Source name, access date, etc.</ref>

== References ==

{{reflist}}

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]
