G'day, could be make this template work with the ref field please? In-line citations are not universally used, and this doesn't apparently work with sfn at present. If it does, please explain how. Otherwise I will just use cite web. Cheers, Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 02:12, 25 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

I have added a field "|ref=" which will enable you to enter a manual reference link for sfn. Find bruce (talk) 00:34, 27 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

Unfortunately that doesn't work, either with or without a harvid ref tag. See the current article. Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 05:10, 27 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
Like i said its a manual reference id. For Jack Critchley, changing it to "ref=Haskett2022" works fine Find bruce (talk) 08:35, 27 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
I’ve never seen a manual ref id like that in 11 years on WP. Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 11:58, 27 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
It generates the exact code used in the short references. Feel free to fix it Find bruce (talk) 04:22, 28 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
Forget it, I've changed it to cite web. Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 05:37, 28 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
Repeatedly editing Jack Critchley while I was trying to find the source of errors and making changes to get it to work just made it harder. As far as I can tell it works just fine now Find bruce (talk) 05:45, 28 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
