Description Bultro 2013-06-24 11:11:25 UTC 
Footnotes containing templates, such as:
<ref>{{anytemplate|...}}</ref>
Don't work when exported in PDF with the "Download as PDF" function.
The [1], [2]... symbols appear, but there is no corresponding footnote in the References section of the PDF file.

Try for example to Download as PDF http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jonathan_Sykes. Many people noticed this with different combinations of browser, wikipedia language, article and templates.
Comment 1 This, that and the other (TTO) 2013-06-25 01:27:01 UTC 
Confirming.

This is badly broken on probably most articles, e.g. [[Julia Gillard]].
Comment 2 Toliño 2013-07-16 13:33:42 UTC 
I was about to fill in the same bug.
Comment 3 Bultro 2013-08-05 15:41:10 UTC 
NOTE: i tried, in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jonathan_Sykes, to replace the <ref> with a #ref tag (as in http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Magic_words#Miscellaneous), and now exporting to PDF seems to work for that note.
Hope this helps solving the bug. Looks like a problem in parsing precedence

bug 46115 This was discussed in March when we working on the new templates, but the issue is not confined to the citation templates.
