Description John Mark Vandenberg 2013-07-23 20:32:21 UTC 
After adding a reference, this new user couldnt work out what to do.

(ignore the first diff block; that is another bug)
Comment 1 Amir E. Aharoni 2013-07-26 07:18:36 UTC 
Is this a duplicate of Bug 51873 [reported by yourself ;-) ]?
Comment 2 John Mark Vandenberg 2013-07-26 08:24:34 UTC 
Hehe; no.
bug 51873 is references with no ref.
this bug is ref with no references, which gives no warning at all in VE, and then after saving says "Cite error: <ref> tags exist, but no <references/> tag was found"

The title of this bug could be: inserting a ref should _automatically_ insert a references block if there is none, and warn the user on save if they have a ref in a group which doesnt have a corresponding references tag.

Is this the same as Bug 45132?
