Usage
Use this template to create a reference list in an article with a small font. Note that there is no consensus that small font size should always be used for all references; when normal-sized font is more appropriate on an article, use <references />
instead.
If used with no parameters, it will produce a reference list with a single column.
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 and Safari 3, though the feature is included in CSS3, so it should work for a larger number of browsers in the future.
