...what exactly does it do? sonia 07:41, 30 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
It makes the bottom box of Template:Documentation match the top box as it does at enwiki. Set Sail For The Seven Seas 200° 11' 0" NET 13:20, 30 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see any problems with that. --SEPTActaMTA8235 20:10, 20 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

References[change source]

The reference lists created by the {{reflist}} template (and, I suspect, the <references /> tag) should be using a smaller font-size than regular page text. This does not occur, however, because Common.css uses the following deprecated code to apply the 90% font-size:

.references-small { font-size: 90%;}

This line should be removed, since there is no longer a class "references-small" applied to any reference list structure.

Additionally, the following block:

/* make the list of references look smaller */
ol.references {
 font-size: 100%;
}

Does exactly the opposite of what its comment indicates. It actually makes the references the same size as the text.

In order to properly apply the old 90% font-size, the ol.references block should be changed to:

/* Make the list of references smaller */
ol.references,
div.reflist,
div.refbegin {
    font-size: 90%;            /* Default font-size */
}
div.reflist ol.references {
    font-size: 100%;           /* Reset font-size when nested in div.reflist */
    list-style-type: inherit;  /* Enable custom list style types */
}

The second CSS block is necessary so that nested inheritors of the first block will not have miniscule 90% of 90% font-sized text. (This is lifted from the English wiki, where it works as intended.)

So, in summary: first code block should be removed; second code block should be replaced with third code block. –Mûĸĸâĸûĸâĸû (blah?) 04:05, 13 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'd agree here. I always liked the smaller font for references better. Won't make the change myself as I always break such stuff. Someone else should/may do this. -Barras (talk) 14:27, 14 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You can remove the following; it is now part of core:

/* Category tree styling. Works in conjuction with [[MediaWiki:Categorytree-expand-bullet]],
   [[MediaWiki:Categorytree-collapse-bullet]] and [[MediaWiki:Categorytree-empty-bullet]]. */
#mw-subcategories ul {
