== 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).

If used with no parameters, it will simply produce a reference list in a small font.

=== Multiple columns ===

Using <tt><nowiki>{{reflist|2}}</nowiki></tt> will create a two-column reference list, and <tt><nowiki>{{reflist|3}}</nowiki></tt> will create a three-column list.

Using <tt><nowiki>{{reflist|colwidth=30em}}</nowiki></tt> 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]],<ref>{{cite web|accessdate=2006-11-24|date=[[2005-12-30]]|title=CSS3 Multi-Column Thriller|url=http://www.stuffandnonsense.co.uk/archives/css3_multi-column_thriller.html}}</ref> though the feature is included in [[Cascading Style Sheets|CSS3]], so it should work for a larger number of browsers in the future.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-multicol|title=CSS3 module: Multi-column layout|publisher=[[World Wide Web Consortium|W3C]]|date=[[2005-12-15]]|accessdate=2006-11-24}}</ref>

For Example:

<pre>
== Content ==

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

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

== References ==

{{reflist}}

</pre>
