For the template used to list reference suggestions useful for future article improvement, see Template:Refideas.

{{Sources-talk}} adds a list of references for a given talk page discussion. This template is a convenience wrapper around {{Reflist-talk}} to collapse this list to avoid bludgeoning the discussion thread. Please read that template's documentation for additional information and limitations on its use.

The template can also be useful on other types of non-mainspace pages, e.g., for a section in a user's sandbox.

Usage

• {{Sources-talk}}

Place this template at the very end of the discussion or section that includes the references, just like for {{Reflist-talk}}. This will include all references before the template that haven't been claimed by a previous template, collecting the references associated with the appropriate section for clarity, and maintaining the integrity of the discussion when archived.

Redirects

• {{Reflist-talk-collapsed}}

See also

• {{Dummy ref}}
• {{Fake heading}}
• {{Reflist hide}}, hides references upon saving.
• {{Notelist-talk-collapsed}}, sibling template wrapper to add a collapsed {{notelist-talk}}
