class Infoboxer::Tree::Ref

Represents footnote.

Is not rendered in text flow, so, wikitext like

“` …pushed it back into underdevelopment,<ref>…tons of footnote text…</ref> though it nevertheless… “` when parsed and {Node#text} called, will return text like:

“` …pushed it back into underdevelopment, though it nevertheless… “`

…which most times is most reasonable thing to do.
