==Overview==<br />
{{See|HELP:FOOT}}<br />
When grouped references are defined, then the page must also have markup to show the reference list. The reference list is shown by including either of the following:<br />
<br />
:{{tlx|Reflist|group&#61;''groupname''}}<br />
<br />
::or<br />
<br />
:{{tl|notelist}} or one of the variants listed below.<br />
<br />
==Issues and resolution==<br />
The most obvious and simplest issue is when the reference list markup is missing. Simply add {{tlx|reflist|group&#61;''groupname''}} to the end of the article under the section title "References", usually between "See also" and "External links". The $1 in the message shown above will be replaced with the groupname.<br />
<br />
There are predefined group names that use templates for the in-text citation and for the reference list. If one of these group names is used, then the matching reference list template can be used.<br />
{{#section:Help:footnotes|pregrouptable}}<br />
----<br />
Sometimes the reference list markup exists, but the message is shown because the {{tag|ref|o}} tag immediately before the reference list markup does not have a closing {{tag|ref|c}} or it is malformed, thus "eating" the rest of the text including the reference list. Find the last {{tag|ref|o}} tag and ensure it is properly closed with {{tag|ref|c}}.<br />
----<br />
This message may also show if there are {{tag|ref}} tags after the reference list markup. Ensure all {{tag|ref}} tags are properly placed. A template such as a navbox may have {{tag|ref}} tags.<br />
<br />
==Examples==<br />
{{Pre2|<nowiki>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.<ref group="note">Reference 1</ref> Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco</nowiki> {{Not a typo|<nowiki>laboris</nowiki>}}{{Not a typo}} <nowiki>nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat.</nowiki>}}<br />
<br />
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.<ref group="note">Reference 1</ref> Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco {{Not a typo|laboris}} nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat.<br />
