References in columns
[edit]It's much easier to read text in narrower columns. Any good book on typographic layout cites the studies. Which is one reason they should be used in {{Reflist}}, **See also* sections, etc..
Multiple columns are much more visibly distinguishing than smaller type, and a section header that look just all like the others.
Citations are a different form of content, that most other sections, which is why additional visible distinction is good.
