Description Zoltan Molnar 2012-05-05 19:32:56 UTC
Inconsistent cite handling.

In the editor the source of my added cite of book was 

<ref>{{cite book|last=ff|first=trtr|title=fgfg|year=343|publisher=fgf|isbn=445454}}</ref>

Wikisource editor handled it smoothly.

Wikipedia also displayed an

"Cite error: There are <ref> tags on this page, but the references will not show without a {{Reflist}} template or a <references /> tag; see the ."

error message (see attached picture).

I would like to node that the error message in incorrect in itself, I mean the "... see the ." part, that is meaningless.
