Category:Pages with duplicate reference names

This is a maintenance category. It is used for maintenance of the project and is not part of the content. It contains pages that are not articles, or it groups articles by status rather than subject. Do not include this category in content categories. This is a hidden category. It is not shown on its member pages, unless the corresponding user preference 'Show hidden categories' is set. This is a tracking category. It builds and maintains a list of pages primarily for the sake of the list itself. Pages are added to tracking categories through templates.

This category is not shown on its member pages unless the appropriate user preference is set.

This category may be empty occasionally or even most of the time. Administrators: Please do not delete this category even if it is empty.

Pages are placed in this category when any of the following cite errors are generated on the page:

• Invalid <ref> tag; name "$1" defined multiple times with different content

Where $1 is the <ref> tag name.

This indicates that there are multiple <ref> tags (or {{sfn}}

{{sfn}} templates) on the page that are generating the same named reference with different body content. If the differences in reference text are immaterial, the situation may be fixed by removing the body content from all but one of the ref tags, i.e. converting them to <ref name="foo" /> format. If the differences are important, the situation may be fixed by changing the names so they are no longer the same.

If you fix it you can leave this edit summary if you wish:

The pages Template:Broken ref,Help:Cite errors and subpages contain deliberate errors and do not need to be repaired. UPDATE this page
