When using the <ref></ref> button on the extended part of the edit toolbar, it only produces the references themselves, it does not add {{Reflist}} to the end of the page, so the references you add do not appear as footnotes. The required bits to make this work are in the Common.js, but its protected and i am unable therefore to edit it. Could it be amended to add {{Reflist}} to the bottom of the article before categories so that the references appear. Thanks
Bugzilla is only used for requesting action be taken by developers or system administrators. As I told you on IRC, this is not a software issue, it's a local configuration issue. The proper place for asking for changes to Common.js on the English Wikipedia is probably [[MediaWiki talk:Common.js]], or maybe [[WP:VPR]] or [[WP:VPT]].
I was informed later on, due to the fact i told you about the wrong thing, that it was advisable to place it here as a Feature request. This information was given to me by user Bryan in the IRC channel, Simetrical. Take it up with him, since he told me to post it here!
