Harvard referencing is referencing :-(

I've seen vastly under-informed "editors" placing this tag on articles that are very well referenced using Harvard notation. Please, please take the time to learn more about referencing before using this template!!! Ling.Nut 15:26, 9 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Please read the template. The claim is not that the article is uncited, but that it could be improved by using Wikipedia's <ref> tag to associate references with their respective sections of text. While, for uniformity, it is conventional to use the citation templates to format references, there's nothing stopping you from entering such references in your favorite reference format (just don't be upset when, predictably, someone comes along and converts them to citation templates). -Harmil 19:06, 15 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Problem with this template Sept 15, 2007

This edit: [1] seems to have caused this template to mis-render. Can someone please address it? Thanks. -Harmil 19:07, 15 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It's back, but now it's an orange bar next to the text. Can whoever is messing around with this or whatever underlying template please do so in a sandbox? -Harmil 19:08, 15 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Check out the Wikipedia:Template standardization page, it seems all the templates are getting this treatment. The bar stands for "content", even though it seems to be a "style" issue.
