But until then I think we should adopt some simple and minor use conventions for ref tags, the first of which being to begin ref tags on a new line in the code, and likewise end the ref tag on its own line.
The problem with this is that starting a new line leaves whitespace in between the text and the reference superscript link, which is not normally present, and not desired.
If this is adopted as a standard, a little code fix to close up that whitespace would be nice.
What I normally do is start the <ref> tag on the same line, but immediately start a new line after it to place the actual reference info, like so:
Text text text.<ref> {{cite|stuff}}</ref> Continued text.
or for larger citation blocks, doing it more like:
Text text text.<ref> {{cite |author=foo |title=bar }}</ref> Continued text.
