 * And after a little research, modifying the template seems possible, but discouraged by at least the Wikipedia documentation for reflist. One reason (no standard section title) seems to be irrelevant in our little domain, as we'll be setting the ATT standard; the other (edit link that would open the template itself) seems avoidable with the right "magic word" if some of the other pages I saw are any indication.  For the moment, at least, I'll let it lie there and see what discussion brings forth.  -- Looney Toons (talk) 16:05, 20 November 2013 (UTC)
 * I just added a "Notes" section to the template as a test. I originally wnted to do this anyway, but I didn't because Vorticity wasn't sure it would look good. However, changing it was really easy, so let me know what you think of the change and if we should keep or revert it. GethN7 (talk) 17:13, 20 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Yeah we had this whole discussion before, and then the working copy got deleted along with the rest of our content. The solution was to restore the edit to MediaWiki:Cite references prefix, which will draw up a Notes header whenever the &lt;references /&gt; tag is actually rendered.  That is, when there are actually notes in the text.   will otherwise be an empty template.Vorticity (talk) 19:21, 20 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Fantastic! Thank you, I'll check it out.  Wonder if I'll have to remove all those headers I put in now...  -- Looney Toons (talk) 20:45, 20 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Yup, I will. -- Looney Toons (talk) 20:50, 20 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Done. -- Looney Toons (talk) 21:34, 20 November 2013 (UTC)

Vorticity or Geth, could someone take a look at what's happening on Cowboy Bebop/Fanfic Recs, please? The styling for the reflist header on that page -- and that page alone, so far as I've noticed -- is wrong. Thanks. -- Looney Toons (talk) 20:19, 21 November 2013 (UTC)
 * I'm in the middle of debugging an issue on the combination of reference headers and SectionHide -- hold tight a bit. Vorticity (talk) 20:23, 21 November 2013 (UTC)
 * No problem. I didn't necessarily mean this very minute, after all.  -- Looney Toons (talk) 20:25, 21 November 2013 (UTC)
