Issue

The automatically generated references may confuse users because it looks so much like the real thing.

Possible solutions

  1. Rename the header to "Generated / Diff references" or something along those lines
  2. Change the styling of the auto reference list
  3. Make the list collapsible / collapsed by default
  4. Add a note to the sidebar indicating that this is solely a "diff reference list"
