How do you re-use references?

I want to use the same reference to back up multiple statements in an article. How do I do this?
If I add the same footnote multiple times then it will be listed multiple times in the reflist.

You must recall the footnote using the same option value that you used to name it.

Example first use:

Code:

---

[FOOTNOTE="footnote-name"]actual footnote content that appears in the reflist[/FOOTNOTE]

---

Example repeat use:

Code:

---

[FOOTNOTE="footnote-name"][/FOOTNOTE]

---
