:''Actually'', it looks like the ref notation simply advances to "aa", even though it wasn't listed on MediaWiki:Cite link label group-lower-alpha – see [[Quotes/Manual]]'s footnotes, which go past "z".

:<u>Actually</u> actually, it appears that the page is not used to provide alphabetical footnotes in the reference list at the bottom of the page but rather to provide the letters in the ''body'' of the page; without MediaWiki:Cite link label group-lower-alpha, each reference will appear in the article text as <sup>[lower-alpha ''n'']</sup>. So I've restored the page *shrug*. Who can understand wikis? --[[User:Iritscen|Iritscen]] ([[User talk:Iritscen|talk]]) 22:21, 22 April 2025 (UTC) | |||
