Bug #: 31910
Summary: Place backreferences after the footnote
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: any
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Cite
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
It would be useful if, in the references list, the backreference links (^, ^
<sup>a b</sup>, etc) were placed at the end of the footnote, so that the
entries would be aligned to the left, and could be quickly inspected by author
name (if they, as they should, follow the same citation standard). This also
allows easier inspection to ensure the very following of these standards.
Apart from the usage benefits above, such a change would also improve the
aesthetic appearance of the references list. And, at least from the top of my
head, I can't think of any downsides.
