This is a documentation subpage for Template:Reflist (see that page for the template itself).
It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

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)

== Content ==

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

Option 2 (only general sources)
