I happened to get a couple "reference overloading" errors during the process of updating a new corresponding field to pick up pre-existing entries. The error reported is correct. However, the warning message might be slightly edited to make it more clear and to fix a grammar error.

Here is the current text:

Reference overloading: [...] would of had 2 references and only 1 reference is permitted. Before adding a reference, you would need to edit [...] to remove an existing reference and resave this node to have make it correspond. Or you could allow this reference instance to have more references, go to the cck field settings of the instance

I think I understand the message, but to improve its clarity in English, perhaps the following might be better?

Reference overloading: [...] would haveof had 2 references and only 1 reference is permitted. To add aBefore adding a reference, you would need to edit [...] to remove an existing reference and then resave this node to have make the field entriesit correspond. To increase the number of allowed references, Or you could allow this reference instance to have more references, go to the appropriate CCKcck field settings of this content typethe instance

After edits, it would read:

Reference overloading: [...] would have had 2 references and only 1 reference is permitted. To add a reference, you need to edit [...] to remove an existing reference and then resave this node to make the field entries correspond. To increase the number of allowed references, go to the appropriate CCK field setting of this content type

Or something like that.
