The Tallboy bomb article uses ref notes. The "ref_label" and "note" templates are working as expected but the "ref" template shows "Template:Ref" in the text and if cliked upon takes the reader to this template. Something somewhere is broken and I would appreciate it if someone who knows what they are doing could fix the Ref template. -- Philip Baird Shearer 10:57, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
Does this format.. superscripted text in parentheses such as (Author), that links to a note indexed as (Author) .. does it exist in the real world? Can you go to the library and pick up a major journal referenced in this way? If the answer is NO I vote Deprecate and Delete. Just because we can make our own idiosyncratic system of referencing is a far cry for saying that we should. The current chaos in systems for linking cites to refs does a huge disservice to the Wikipedia community. -- Ling.Nut 15:29, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
I'd like to add a second parameter defaulting to nothing for the link name (see example page where this would be useful). This would have no effect on normal usage, as shown below. Are there any objections to this?
meh{{ref|meh|a}} fuu{{ref|fuu|b}} bar{{ref|bar|c}}{{ref|mv}}. == Notes == * {{note|meh|a}} [[meh]] * {{note|fuu|b}} [[fuu]] * {{note|bar|c}} [[bar]] # {{note|mv}} [[Metasyntactic variable]]

Is there any point to the templates like {{ ref 1}}, {{ ref 2}}, and so on? I'd say they should be deleted and all instances should be replaced with {{ ref label}}, so that they are linked to the associated notes. — Omegatron 21:20, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
If the template is used with a space before the reference_name, the inter-links with note do not work. Since the template parameters are not named, leading spaces are kept. So in id="ref_{{{1}}}", the html has "ref__value". However, in #endnote_{{{1}}}, the leading space is dropped, so the html has "#endnote_value". Since the opposite happens in {{ note}}, they don't work together. I'm guessing this has something to do with how repeated spaces are processed for html display - and that the underscore in the #endnote is being treated as a space.
Since this is used on nearly 9000 pages, it might be good to discuss options for fixing this bug. I've tried using anchorencode to handle these tags without success. A "simple" fix for this is to replace the underscores with some other letter, such as "Q". In {{ Rf}}/{{ Ent}}, this works when one template use to have more leading spaces than another template use, though if one use has a leading space and the other doesn't it still fails.

I'm no expert, but it looks to me as if there is a problem with the {{Note_label}) template.
{{Note_label|DD|EE|FF}} produces HTML resembling the following:
<cite id="endnote_DDFF"> <a href="#ref_DDFF" title=""> <b><sup>FF</sup></b> </a></cite>
Note that EE does not appear anywhere in the HTML, and FF appears three times.
The {{Note_label}) template code currently reads:
<cite id="endnote_{{{1}}}{{{3}}}">[[#ref_{{{1}}}{{{3}}}|'''<sup>{{#if:{{{3|none}}} |{{#ifeq:none|{{{2|none}}} |^ |{{{3|}}} }} |{{{3}}} }}</sup>''']]</cite>
It looks to me as if
should read
OK. Thanks. I use these templates occasionally, and I need to struggle with them for quite a while on every usage occasion to figure them out -- the documentation isn't much help to me, and I end up doing test cases and examining the generated HTML in order to figure out how to use them. The bit about the 2nd parameter in the Note_label template being a deliberately unused parameter has escaped me until now; perhaps that is what has been throwing me on the rare occasions when I use these templates. -- Boracay Bill
I think this needs to be looked at again. As far as I can tell, "EE" should be used somewhere in the template. Currently there is no way to produce a note with a label that is different from the reference anchor name. ~ Paul C/ T + 22:27, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

I'm thinking that it would be useful to have alternative Ref family templates (Ref, Ref_harv, Ref_harvard & Ref_label) which would not assign an ID attribute, thereby enabling a particular Note_label to be targeted by several Refs and to backlink just to a particular one. This could be useful, for example, where a Ref has a footnote associated with it which remarks something about a work which has a full citation in a Bibliography section. Here's an example showing how this might be useful -- using the convention that Refn is a Ref family template workalike which does not assign an ID attribute:
The note would appear in a Notes or References section, with the Refn_harvard transclusion. A Bibliography section might have an entry like:
At the inline links, there is a choice of navigating to the footnote or to the Bibliography section citation. At the footnote, there is a choice of navigating back to the inline ref or to the full cite in the bibliography section. At the bibliography section cite, one can navigate back to the inline ref.
One implementation alternative might be to define a named parameter for the Ref family templates which, if set to a particular value, would disable assignment of the ID attribute (e.g., {{Ref|Blaker2003|ID=no}}) Perhaps better - default the ID parameter to yes if not specified, and disable ID attribute assignment if it gets set to anything else. -- Boracay Bill 07:28, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
(unindent) Apologies for not being able to make myself clear on this. Let me try to explain another way. The first time it is transcluded, <nowiki XYZ</nowiki, for example, would cause HTML something like the following to be generated (emphasis added):
If transcluded a second time, it would cause HTML something like the following to be generated (emphasis added):
Note that id="ref_ABC" appears twice in that HTML. AFAICT, that is a problem since ID assignments within an HTML document are required to be unique. I propose to add an alternative to {{ Ref}} which would ne named {{ Refn}} which would duplicate {{ ref}}'s functionality except that the id="ref_ABC" would not be included. This would allow wikieditors to avoid generating duplicate ID assignments in cases where several Ref-family templates associate with a single {{ Note}} or {{ Note label}} template. In previous discussion above, I've outlined one situation where a wikieditor might wish to associate two Ref-family templates with one {{ Note label}}. -- Boracay Bill 06:32, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
(unindent) Moving forward with all deliberate speed, I have drafted a revision to the Documentation section of this page describing my contemplated changes. Following on some discussion here, my current intention is to modify the existing templates rather than to add similarly-named companions. My revised Documentation draft is located here. Any comments will be appreciated. -- Boracay Bill 05:57, 29 May 2007 (UTC)

Using ref/note tags is not the only way to do footnotes. Some people prefer to use Cite.php. Cite.php has many advantages, but is not mandatory. You can use the Ref converter to replace ref/note tags with the newer Cite.php style. If you are interested in the discussion, please see the Footnotes talk page.

Standard practice by typographers is to superscript the reference labels, but the note labels are full-sized labels just like list bullets. (I know what MS Word does, but that's because a computer programmer was ignorant of the rules and applied a single style to both.) Typography references are clear about this, like The Elements of Typographic Style (§4.3.3 ‘Use superscripts in the text but full-size numbers in the notes themselves’).
Let's remove the <sup> element from {{ Note label}}. — Michael Z. 2008-05-03 16:44 z
I propose a modification to add an optional third un-named parameter to {{ Note}} and an optional fourth un-named parameter to {{ note label}}. The optional parameter would contain text which is to be cite-highlighted. This would allow the note associated with the {{ note}} and {{ note label}} to be cite-highlighted, instead of only the backlink. This would be useful in most cases, where only one backlink is associated with a note. I have created temporary templates named {{ Note par}} and {{ Note label par}} to demonstrate this.

Ah. In both instances, the generated HTML is (roughly):

I think that the answer lies in differences in the css for the "reference plainlinksneverexpand" class. see WP:Skin and MediaWiki:Common.css. -- Boracay Bill ( talk) 23:33, 13 November 2008 (UTC)
I've changd my test not use use template: polish wiki [6] english wiki [7] HTML code is:

so not using plainlinksneverexpand class. There is still the difference but maybe you right and the reason is somewhere in Common.css

Wikipedia offers a simple and powerful method to create footnotes (a.k.a. references) through the <ref> element in the wiki markup. The resulting HTML markup, however, is more complex than necessary. This study shows how the number of elements required to represent a footnote can be halved, while improving the reusability of the content.

Ref creates an HTML id for the backlink using id="ref_{{{1}}}"
. When using Ref multiple times, the id is the same. Per the HTML spec, ids must be unique, thus Cref causes validation errors. For example,
General Electric fails because {{

Okay, I know it's not generally a good idea, but is there a version of this template which would allow for changing the link color? The reason that I ask is that there some tables where people change the background color to something dark, and the text color to white (for contrast), but the ref links stay in a dark blue, often making them unreadable.
