Template:Refn/doc

Description
This template can be used to nest citations within footnotes, making it possible for an article to have a discrete but functional Notes Section and References Section.

Syntax
The group parameter enables one to corral specific references and display them separately from other references. One could use 'nb' (Notes-Bibliography System) to separate (Foot)notes from References.

The name parameter identifies an individual reference with a unique label, like 'name' in.

To generate a references list for a Notes Section, one would write  (substituting 'nb' or another appropriate term for 'variable'), and use the standard for the References section.

Simple Example
"Ito also worked on the anime's art boards, reserving the right to draw his preferred shots."
 * Example Statement

The booklet source for this statement provides a definition for art boards in its footnotes. Suppose that we want to do the same and use the booklet as a citation. This is impossible via tags alone, as ref tags nested within ref tags— —are unable to be parsed. Instead, we can use Refn.

For the purpose of this example, the definition is truncated. The dummy sections are distinguished with capital letters to avoid confusing them with the Documentation's actual sections. Two normal ref tag have also been included to demonstrate the difference made by a group parameter. One cites the same reference the Footnote cites; the second is fluff.


 * Inputting...

Ito also worked on the anime's art boards, reserving the right to draw his preferred shots.

Ito worked exclusively on Baccano! throughout all eighteen months of production. He credits this 'total immersion into a single project' as enabling him to "come out of his own shell."

Baccano! is a criminally underrated light novel series.
