            Bug ID: 68324
           Summary: Cite: Add namespace detection for automatically
                    generated reference list
           Product: MediaWiki extensions
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: Cite

When error checking was first added to cite.php, the message for missing
reference list markup was showing up for all pages including user and talk.
This was usually because chunks of article content would be copied for
discussion and this would often include the references. The decision was to not
show these errors on user and talk pages.

This was implemented by use of the {{broken ref}} template which was applied to
the related MediaWiki interface pages.

With the resolution of Bug 66860. when a page has missing reference list
markup, it is automatically generated. Now all the talk page references appear
at the bottom of the page and there have been complaints that it is
distracting.

We need the ability to apply namespace detection to the automatically generated
reference list.
