این الگو در ۲٬۴۰۰٬۰۰۰+ صفحه، یا نزدیک به ۴۲٪ از کل صفحه‌ها صفحه به‌کار رفته است. به‌منظور جلوگیری از ایجاد اخلال و وارد شدن فشار به سرورها، هرگونه تغییر باید ابتدا در زیرصفحه‌های /تمرین یا /آزمایشی الگو، یا در زیرصفحهٔ کاربری خودتان آزمایش شود. تغییرات آزمایش‌شده را می‌توان در یک ویرایش به این صفحه افزود. توصیه می‌شود که ابتدا در خصوص تغییرات مورد نظر در صفحهٔ بحث گفتگو کرده و سپس آن‌ها را پیاده‌سازی کنید.
Columns are currently supported only by newer versions of گکو-based browsers (such as فایرفاکس موزیلا) and وب‌کیت-based browsers (such as گوگل کروم and سافاری). All versions of اینترنت اکسپلورر through to version 9 and اپرا (مرورگر وب) through to version 11 do not support columns. See below for more information.

This citation template provides formatting and organizational features for footnotes. It encapsulates the <references /> tag used by the Cite.php MediaWiki extension to show the list of references as defined by <ref> tags. It adds support for a reduced font size, columns, groups and List-defined references.
column-count: a اعداد طبیعی specifying fixed columns into which the reference list is to be rendered. Example: |2|.
column-width: a typographic unit of measurement such as em, specifying the width for the reference list columns. Example: |30em|.
colwidth: explicitly sets the column-width; do not use close with this parameter— it is not needed and it will cause colwidth to not work.
refs: used with named references (e.g. <ref name=name />); it specifies a list of some or all named references used in the article.
group: identifies by name the subset of references to be rendered; the value should correspond to that used inline, e.g. {{Reflist|group=groupname}} renders all references with groupname as the group name (<ref>).
liststyle: specifies the style used when the reference list is enumerated; if none is specified, the default is to render a numbered list.
close: forces the reference list to close and render all references defined to that point; see the section on multiple uses for details.
Using {{Reflist|2}} will create a two-column reference list, and {{Reflist|3}} will create a three-column list, and so on. Choose the number of columns that is appropriate for the average width of the references on the page.
Using {{Reflist|30em}} will create columns with a minimum width of 30 em, allowing the browser to automatically choose the number of columns based on the width of the web browser. Choose a column width that is appropriate for the average width of the references on the page.
The use of columns can result in widows and orphans, where a citation at the bottom of a column may be split to the top of the next column. There are CSS3 selectors that could resolve this, but they are not yet supported by any major browsers.
Reference lists are by default numbered lists. By using the |liststyle= parameter, you can control how the list is rendered. For example, using |liststyle=upper-roman will result in items being prefixed with عددنویسی رومی instead of decimal numbers. The parameter accepts any valid CSS value defined for list-style-type as shown below.
The citations in the reference list will show the default decimal styling if:
The value for |liststyle= does not exactly match one of the predefined values
If {{Reflist}} is used multiple times without a parameter, each instance will include all of the previously defined references. To force the parser to close previous references, each use of {{Reflist}} must be forced as a new instance by the use of any parameter. If no parameter is desired, the convention is to use the undefined parameter {{Reflist|close}}.
A list of references may be defined within {{Reflist}} using the |refs= parameter, just like including named <ref name=". . ."> elements inside the <references /> container. This has been available since September 2009. There are new error messages associated with this feature, documented at Help:Cite errors, including one for references defined in {{Reflist}} but not used within the body.
This is reference 1.<ref name="refname1" />
This is reference 2.<ref name="refname2" />
==References==
{{Reflist|refs=
<ref name="refname1">content1</ref>
<ref name="refname2">content2</ref>
}}
As of June 2008, the footnotes system supports the separation of references into groups. This allows groups for explanatory notes, table references and the like. See ویکی‌پدیا:پانویس‌ها.
Where groupname would be a group identifier such as "note", "nb" or "label".
There are three pre-defined group names that will automatically cause the link labels and this template to display other characters instead of numbers (see List styles above). These are: "lower-alpha" (a, b, c...), "lower-greek" (α, β, γ...) and "lower-roman" (i, ii, iii...) and must be written without quotes.
The font size should reduce to 90% for most browsers, but may appear to show at 100% for Internet Explorer and possibly other browsers.[۴] As of December 21, 2010, the standard <references /> tag has the same font styling. The smaller font may be disabled through Special:Preferences → Gadgets → Disable smaller font sizes of elements such as Infoboxes, Navboxes and References lists.
Multiple columns are generated by using برگه‌های سبک آبشاری, which is still in development; thus only browsers that properly support the multi-column property will show multiple columns with {{Reflist}}.[۵][۶]
By editing your CSS, the personal appearance of the reference list can be customized. From Preferences, select the Appearance tab, then on the selected skin select Custom CSS. After editing and saving, follow the instructions at the top of the page to purge. See Wikipedia:Skin#Customisation (advanced users) for more help.
Font size
The font size for all reference lists defaults to 90% of the standard size. To change it, add:
There have been a number of requests to add functionality for a collapsible or scrolling reference list. These requests have not been fulfilled to due to issues with readability, accessibility, and printing. The applicable guidelines are at ویکی‌پدیا:شیوه‌نامه. Links between the inline cite and the reference list do not work when the reference list is enclosed in a collapsed box.
