This template has recently been updated to use the [[Wikipedia:Lua|Lua]] programming language. The new template should render citations just like the old template in most cases. This template is more efficient and uses fewer resources, thus pages will load faster. If you see a problem, please report it on the talk page.
This template has recently been updated to use the [[Wikipedia:Lua|Lua]] programming language, to run 6-12x times faster. See: [[WP:Lua-based cite templates]].

Another improvement is in the number of authors and editors: these are now unlimited. For example, you can use '''last1''' through '''last100''' and beyond, using common sense of course. There is also more error checking: we haven't added more red error messages yet, but we do place pages in error categories.

There have been some outstanding issues that have been resolved that were difficult to fix or where the fix caused performance issues in the old template.

The documentation will be updated soon to reflect these changes.
