Context

Some Wikis use a template to generate the reference list instead of using the <references> tag directly. These templates usually look contain Wikitext like:

{{#tag:references|{{{refs|}}}|group={{{group|}}}|responsive={{#if:{{{1|}}}{{{colwidth|}}}|0|1}}}}

Using a template here usually limits VE's flexibility to work with reference and could also affect working with sub-references in several ways. This ticket is meant as an umbrella to collect issues we know about.
