This template is mainly used to refer to named references as such: {{ref|name=blah}} so that one of the other reference templates can be referenced shorthand. Sometimes it is also useful to just annotate something with a reference, which this template can also be used for with the {{{text}}} parameter. For most situations the other reference templates should be used as they offer more structure.
