: Allows you to define named references within the body of the template and link to them from the article. This can sometimes allow for an easier management of references i.e. all in one place.
Common usage[edit source]
The references should be placed in the footnotes, at the bottom of the page, just before the categories. Simply copy-paste the code below there. If in doubt see any other page with the section already in place. For the common 2-column reference list, use:
==References and Notes== {{references|2}}
