But until then I think we should adopt some simple and

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.
