In Special:Diff/1031851773 to [[Four Tet]], the AWB general fixes added <ref name="ReferenceA"> to three duplicate unnamed references {{AllMusic|class=artist|id=p362101|label=Kieran Hebden}}, but did not condense any to <ref name="ReferenceA"/>, even though there were existing references such as <ref name=":0" />

@GoingBatty Yes, because the named reference is declared in a template call, we can't be sure whether the template will display all of its parameters and hence the reference, so if we condense later calls we could create an undefined reference error. Therefore we don't condense named references if first declaration is in a template call.

@Rjwilmsi Thank you for the explanation. Please check the update I just made to [[WP:DUPCITE]].
