Template:Reflist invokes function reflist in Module:References using Lua.

Use this template to create a reference list in an article with a small font. For details on how to use references, see the reference guide.

Usage

The basic usage requires no parameters:

{{Reflist}}

If the references contain a large number of quotes, to hide the quotes (and only the quotes) add quotes=no:

{{Reflist|quotes=no}}

Column width

The width of columns is controlled using the colwidth parameter. As an example, using {{Reflist|colwidth=30em}} will allow the browser to dynamically choose the number of columns with widths of 30em. The width supports and of the standard CSS length units: px, pt, em, %. Choose a column width that's appropriate for the average width of the references on the page.

Groups

To list references in a group, add group=groupname:

{{Reflist|group=groupname}}
