- Rationale, recommendations:
- As I noted on the talk, the problem with the template is it relies on "relatively proprietary"
( Mozilla's for Firefox) 'technology not available' on most web browsers
I hearby move the template be rewritten:
From:
<div class="references-small" {{#if: {{{colwidth|}}}
| style="-moz-column-width:{{{colwidth}}};
-webkit-column-width:{{{colwidth}}};
column-width:{{{colwidth}}};"
| {{#if: {{{1|}}}| style="-moz-column-count:{{{1}}};
-webkit-column-count:{{{1}}};
column-count:{{{1}}};" }} }}>
{{#tag:references||group={{{group|}}}}}</div><noinclude>{{pp-template|small=yes}}{{documentation}}</noinclude>
- TO
<ref>
<div class="references-small" >
{{#tag:references||group={{{group|}}} }}</div><noinclude>{{pp-template|small=yes}}{{documentation}}</noinclude>
</ref>
- OR
- the equivalent... (not being sure what that
{{#tag:references||group={{{group|}}} }}does besides break {{ lts}}. <shrug>
• If I have this straight, the next result should be (expanded)<small><references/></small>
