i'd still like to see the MoS justification for this change... I guess if you continue to edit war this (and continue breaking the 3 revert rule which should apply to admins as well) i'll get further clarification on the issue from other admins. Considering the 'gimmick' reflist seems to be the most common form used on articles of the day and is used on a large number of feature articles i don't see the problem and think this is your personal ax to grind.
