[edit] Protection request
I feel this template should be protected from edits by non-registered or newly registered users. Does anyone else agree? --Anthony5429 22:17, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
- I see it has been. Thank you. --Anthony5429 (talk) 16:02, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Indentation when using multiple columns
When single columns are used, the indentation seems to work correctly and match Reflist (see Elephant). However, when multiple columns are used, the indentation seems to fail and no longer match Reflist (see Malaysia). --Anthony5429 14:45, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
- It seems to work now assuming refbegin itself is used without multiple columns, which seems logical to me anyway as the general references are typically fewer than the specific. --Anthony5429 17:07, 8 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Heading for Refbegin
How about having a heading before the references so that it is clearer that these are just general references. If you have a look at Elephant the general references start but it isn't too clear. How about having before the DIV starts just put in a line
;General references
producing:
- General references
so that it is clear (See Ganges and Indus River Dolphin). Of course the heading could just be put in before the template is used on the page, but this might be easier. Also how about changing the * for # so that it stays in line a bit better with the inline references. Chris_huhtalk 10:56, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
