Can we eventually set up a bot to go through pages and detect whether they actually have any refs to go into the reflist template, and if so put a "== Notes ==" header over it? The bare footnote list look bothers me, and I've been adding a header whenever I encounter one, but I'd rather automate it than try to manually locate and update x-many thousand pages that need it. <grin>
Or... Hm. I'm going to have to look into templates now. Maybe we can incorporate a conditional display of a header into the template? I dunno. You guys are the experts. -- Looney Toons (talk) 15:47, 20 November 2013 (UTC)
