I'm a bit confused. Are cite and ref tags two different things? I recognize ref tags from the Cite.php extension. I thought cite tags were used by the Biblio extension, which isn't running on en.wikipedia or meta.

In my opinion, a BibTeX like system would work quite well for citations.
Yes and no. Although it might make things easier to use and include, there's something to be said for having the whole CITE tag there to examine. A mix of the two approaches might be useful, as would a real tool for making CITEs out of web pages. The tools I've seen to date are not really useful.
