I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'allude' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

I can't explain the rest of the clue.

(Other definitions for refer that I've seen before include "Make allusion, or turn to for information" , "Allude, assign" , "Mention/allude (to)" , "Consult" , "Bring up" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
