    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]
