Editing Template:Reflist/doc (section)

=== Grouped references ===
{{further|WP:REFGROUP}}

References can be grouped into separate sections (for explanatory notes, table references, and the like) via <code>group=</code>:
: {{tag|ref|open|params=group="<var>groupname</var>"}}
where <var>groupname</var> is (for example) <code>notes</code> or <code>sources</code>. The group name need not be enclosed in quotes; this differs from the footnote marker where quotes are required if the group name includes a space.

Each group used in the article must have a matching reference list:
: {{tlx|Reflist|2=group=<var>groupname</var>}}

==== Predefined groups ====
{{further|H:PREGROUP}}

There are predefined group names that automatically set the labels in the footnote markers and the reference list to other styles. Thus, setting <code><nowiki>{{reflist|group=lower-alpha}}</nowiki></code> will set the group to <code>lower-alpha</code> and will style the reference list with lower alpha characters. The matching footnote marker can be formed by {{tag|ref|params=group="lower-alpha"}}. This is made easier by a series of templates to set the group/label styles for the footnote marker and the reference list:
{{#section:Help:Footnotes|pregrouptable}}
