RE:

No problem. I was expecting it to happen sooner or later anyway. Last I heard, that Jim Trenton guy has gone missing so I've been trying to keep an eye on that page for a few days. 71.200.165.110 (talk) 04:40, 2 June 2009 (UTC)

Appendix template

Gimme, can you tell what {{Appendix}} is doing? It seems to mirror and print OK, so I'm unsure if it contravenes anything in MoS, but it also seems like an unnecessary pain in the neck, creating some sort of special markup. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 20:42, 2 June 2009 (UTC)

I think it was imported from nl:Sjabloon:Appendix. It's used on almost a thousand pages at nl-wiki. I'm not sure why it's popular there. The uses I checked don't seem to be any improvement. Is
{{appendix|Notes|2=
<references/>
}}
from W. F. Gisolf better than
==Notes==
{{reflist}}
? {{Appendix}} includes a font reduction to 85%, rather than the reflist 90%, so pages like Carboniferous which use reflist seem to have a double reduction for the notes, and the section headings are smaller. Gimmetrow 23:59, 2 June 2009 (UTC)
