Bug ID: 45132
Summary: VisualEditor: When saving a page, check for use of
<ref>s but not <references /> tag
Product: VisualEditor
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: General
Assignee: [email protected]

Depends on: 39599
Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
When a user saves a page, VE should check for references (<ref>s) created
without the de-referencing block (<references /> or {{reflist}} or...) and
intervene:
* prompt them to fix before saving (out of the notices area?);
* refuse to save before fixed (grey out the save button?); or
* auto-fix for them (insert a "== References ==\n<references />" section just
above the categories), though this (a) sucks, (b) enforces a particular wiki's
style on other wikis in code, and (c) would be difficult to internationalise
