When they are not free-to-read, editors should mark those sources with the matching access-indicator parameter so that an appropriate icon is included in the rendered citation. Because the sources linked by these url-holding parameters are presumed to be free-to-read, they may not be marked as <code>free</code>.

Template:TrackedCitations of online sources that require registration or a subscription are acceptable in Wikipedia as documented in Verifiability § Access to sources. As a courtesy to readers and other editors, editors should signal the access restrictions of the external links included in a citation. Script error: No such module "Lang".: access icons do not display correctly for editors who use Modern skin.
Four access levels can be used:
- access indicator for named identifiers:
-
free
: the source is free to read for anyone
-
- access indicators for url-holding parameters:
-
registration
: a free registration is required to access the source -
limited
: there are other constraints (such as a cap on daily views) to freely access this source -
subscription
: the source is only accessible via a paid subscription ("paywall")
-
As there are often multiple external links with different access levels in the same citation, these values are attributed to a particular external link.
Access indicators for url-holding parameters[edit source]
Sources linked by |url=
, |chapter-url=
, |entry-url=
, |article-url=
, and |section-url=
are presumed to be free-to-read. When they are not free-to-read, editors should mark those sources with the matching access-indicator parameter so that an appropriate icon is included in the rendered citation. Because the sources linked by these url-holding parameters are presumed to be free-to-read, they may not be marked as free
.

Access indicator for named identifiers[edit source]
Links inserted by named identifiers are presumed to lie behind a paywall or registration barrier – exceptions listed below. When they are free-to-read, editors should mark those sources with the matching access-indicator parameter so that an appropriate icon is included in the rendered citation. Because the sources linked by these named-identifier parameters are not presumed to be free-to-read, they may not be marked as limited
, registration
, or subscription
.
identifier | access | allowed keywords |

Some named-identifiers are always free-to-read. For those named-identifiers there are no access-indicator parameters, the access level is automatically indicated by the template. These named identifiers are:
