Description Elitre 2013-08-13 11:56:15 UTC 
<< When editing a reference, there is no indication at all if it is used multiple times throughout the article. This makes it very easy to screw up references, e.g. when you replace a ref for one sentence by changing it and it gets propagated throughout the article. WS (talk) 11:45, 13 August 2013 (UTC) >>

Comment 3 etonkovidova 2014-11-18 17:33:02 UTC 
The warning "This reference is used [n] times on this page." appears for Basic citations only  - verified the fix in beta, test2, and production. 

Bug 73566 was filed to apply the same warning to multiple instances of any kind of citations.
