What is going on

Description

edit

Multiple simple references with the same content are replaced template by one reference definition and the other uses are called via reference names. New reference definitions may be stored in {{Reflist}}.

Example

edit

Input: 

<ref>Text</ref>
<ref>Text</ref>
<ref name="something">Text</ref>
<ref>Text2</ref>
<!-- <ref>Text</ref> -->

Output: 

<ref name="Unnamed-20230319001122">Text</ref>
<ref name="Unnamed-20230319001122"/>
<ref name="something">Text</ref>
<ref>Text2</ref>
<!-- <ref>Text</ref> -->

Reference name

edit

The reference name is unique on the actual update page.

Syntax

edit 
PREFIX + INDEX + "-" + DATE
  • PREFIX: Localized text of "Unnamed_".
  • DATE: The UTC date in format YYYYMMDDHHMMSS.
  • INDEX: The number of the change in actual page change incremented at every new reference definition. If the reference is as the one, so INDEX is none/empty.

The implementation does not generate reference naming based on the content of the reference. When created, reference names are unique throughout the Wikimedia.

Example
edit 
Unnamed-20230319001122
Unnamed_3-20230319001122

Syntax (deprected)

edit 
PREFIX + DATE + "-" + INDEX
  • PREFIX: Localized text of "Unnamed-".
  • DATE: The UTC date in format YYYYMMDDHHMMSS.
  • INDEX: The number of the change in actual page change incremented at every new reference definition. If the reference is as the one, so INDEX is none/empty.

Syntax

edit 
PREFIX + TIME + INDEX
  • PREFIX: Localized text of "Unnamed-".
  • TIME: The count seconds (in Unix time) from 2022-02-22 22:22:22 UTC) as the tetrasexagesimal number with the digits (0-63): 0123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzżž (On 2023-03-15 it changed -_ on żž).

The reference name is unique on the actual update page.

Syntax

  • INDEX: The number of the change in actual page change incremented at every new reference definition. If the reference is as the one, so INDEX is none/empty.

Implementation

edit
  • In it, newly defined references are not added to Reflist template.
  • Namespace: Main / 0.
  • Local wikis:
    • jawiki: The reference with the content string "access-date" and "accessdate" are skipping.
