When to use
Use this template to indicate that there are general references in the article, but that none are currently linked with inline citations. If you wish to indicate that there should be more linking via inline citations for articles that already have inline citations, use {{more footnotes}} instead. For articles where the problem is not in that there are general references that are unlinked, but rather that there are just simply not enough references, use {{refimprove}}.
An inline citation is any system that associates a given piece of an article with a specific citation. Do not add this tag to articles that use the "wrong" style of inline citation.
