 :: if you need to improve the text, remember it's for the edit mode, if you're in edit you'd have to expect a little difficulty in the reading. Paring a ref back to near dead link is counter productive.  ::As with your Tim, note the first ref where I named it and duped the second ref of the ref. I ve also seen where you can put the named refs under the reflist and only use the named ref in the text. Had a first paragraph with lots of refs, moved them all down to the bottom, the end result text reads the same in the article space and the edit space is much cleaner.
