this bug makes it impossable to use the ref system on wiki, it should be
considered a urgent matter as correct citation of sources is highly important to
wikipedia's cred

When I give it the input:
"""

  • <ref>foo</ref>
  • <ref>foo</ref>

<references/>
"""

it outputs:
"""

  • [1]
  • [2]
    1. ^ foo
    2. ^ foo

"""

and likewise if I specify a manual key.

Please provide a *simple* testcase (hint: something that isn't ~30KB) and
specify how the output that's being generated differs from what you think it
should generate.

I have not been able to reproduce, including by looking at the the history pages of League of Cambria. Must have been some other strange hiccup.
