Reference format

I'd like to do some work on this new page, but the extraordinary complexity of the references is a real obstacle to that. Would anyone object if I changed the referencing system to list-defined, which puts all the references in the reflist at the foot of the page? I'll probably do so in a day or two if no-one minds.

@ Justlettersandnumbers: Please do go ahead! This is my first translation using the Translation beta, and I was kind of shocked to see how messy the references were when I published the article. I'll help out how I can too. /wia /talk 11:33, 8 October 2015 (UTC) reply
OK, that explains a lot. To be honest, I just couldn't understand how you could have made such a mess – I've never seen anything like it. I'll see if the PleaseStand script can cope with it. This should be reported as a bug, I think. Justlettersandnumbers ( talk) 11:43, 8 October 2015 (UTC) reply
List-defined is great. You probably already know that a "lire en ligne" simply translates into a |url= param in a {{ cite}} template, and not "read online". Mathglot ( talk) 08:31, 14 May 2017 (UTC) reply
