Usage
{{ref|http://segaretro.org}} returns a footnote symbol that looks like this:[1], and appends the website to the References section at the bottom of the page. If multiple references to the same URL are used in a single page, they will be combined into a single reference.
If the address contains an equals sign [=], add "1=" to the beginning of the address like so:
{{ref|1=http://segaretro.org/index.php?title=Example}}

References
Since this template uses the <ref> tag, all pages that use this template will have an auto-generated references list appended to the end of the page. To prevent confusion, a <references/> tag should be added to the end of the page in a dedicated "References" section, such as this one.
