Line 12:
Citations within a page should use consistent formats. However, there is no consensus about which format is best. The following examples are for citations where one or more authors are listed in a single {{para|author|<var>authors</var>}} parameter, using any format. Also shown below are three separate date formats that are commonly used in Wikipedia:

=== Common forms with last1, first1; last2, first2 ===

The examples below will suffice for up to two authors each with first and last names; for more, just create more parameters in a similar style:

** '''authorlink''' works either with '''author''' or with '''last''' & '''first''' to link to the appropriate wikipedia article. Does not work with URLs.
**'''coauthors''': allows additional authors▼
** '''last1''', '''first1''', ..., '''last9''', '''first9''' and optionally '''authorlink1''', ..., '''authorlink9''' for specifying more authors (note: '''last1''', '''first1''' and '''authorlink1''' are synonyms for '''last''', '''first''' and '''authorlink''', so use ''either'' '''last1''' or '''last''', not both)
* a date parameter:▼
** ''either'' '''date''': Full date of publication. Should not be wikilinked.
** ''or'' '''year''': Year of publication, and '''month''': Name of the month of publication. If you also have the day, use '''date''' instead. Should not be wikilinked.
*'''format''': Format, e.g. PDF. HTML implied if not specified.
*'''work''': If this item is part of a larger "work", such as a book, periodical or website, write the name of that work. Do not italicize; the software will do so automatically.
*'''publisher''': Publisher, if any—for example if the website is hosted by a government service, educational institution, or company. (The '''publisher''' is not usually the name of the website,
**'''location''': Geographical place of publication.
* a page parameter
*'''pages''': ''pp. 5–7'': first page and optional last page. This is for listing the pages relevant to the citation, not the total number of pages in the book.<!-- COmmentedout:notimplemented in the template! This is especially useful for [[PDF]] format, where the page can be linked to with the <code>#page=''number''</code> anchor tagged on the end of the URL:▼
** ''either'' '''page''': Page number if a multi-page web article and referencing a single page. "page=5" produces ''p. 5.''
▲** ''or'
*:<code><nowiki>pages = [http://www.example.org/file.pdf#page=123 p. 123]</nowiki></code>-->
** ''or'' '''at''': When the page prefix is unwanted. "at=Table 5" produces ''Table 5''.
*'''language''': language of publication (don't specify "English" as this is the default).
**'''trans_title''': A translated title of the article, in case the original title is in a foreign language. Would normally be used in conjunction with the 'language' parameter.
Line 93 ⟶ 99:
** '''archiveurl''': The URL of an [[Web archiving|archived]] copy of the page, if (or in case) the url becomes unavailable. Typically used to refer to services like [[WebCite]] and [[Internet Archive|Archive.org]].
** '''archivedate''': Date when the item was archived. Should not be wikilinked.
*'''accessdate''': Full date when item was accessed. Should not be wikilinked. This should be given if the publication date is unknown; see ''[[WP:CITEHOW|Citation styles]]''.
*'''quote''': Relevant quote from online item.
*'''ref''': ID for anchor. By default, no anchor is generated. The ordinary nonempty value {{para|ref|<var>ID</var>}} generates an anchor with the given <code><var>ID</var></code>; such a linkable reference can be made the target of [[Wikipedia:Citing sources/Further considerations #Wikilinks to full references|wikilinks to full references]], especially useful in short citations like [[Wikipedia:Citing sources #Shortened footnotes|shortened notes]] and [[Wikipedia:Parenthetical referencing|parenthetical referencing]].

==Using cite web on other Mediawiki installations==
If you want to use 'cite web' on another Mediawiki site, for example at wikia.com or at referata.com, you probably want to edit your <nowiki>http://yoursite.whatever.org/wiki/Mediawiki:common.css</nowiki> file to match the cite styles at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mediawiki:common.css . Easiest is to just copy the whole file. But if you don't want that, you probably want to add the following:
<blockquote>
<tt>
<pre>
/* Styling for citations */
span.citation, cite {
font-style: normal;
word-wrap: break-word;
}
/* For linked citation numbers and document IDs, where
the number need not be shown on a screen or a handheld,
but should be included in the printed version
*/
@media screen, handheld {
span.citation *.printonly {
display: none;
}
}
</pre>
</tt>
</blockquote>
The reason? If you don't, every URL will show up twice in your <references> or {{reflist}} section, because it think's it is printing on paper, and when it prints on paper, it prints out the entire URL.

This is a documentation subpage for Template:Terminate sentence It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
This template is used to cite online sources in Wikipedia articles. {{Cite news}} can also be used when citing a news source; for general information about citations in Wikipedia articles, see Wikipedia:Cite sources. A general discussion of the use of templates for adding citations to Wikipedia articles is available at Wikipedia:Citation templates.
Usage[edit source]
Note: None of the parameters should be capitalised, in order to avoid the article being tagged as having a broken citation. For example, use "url", "title", etc. - not "URL", "Title", etc.
Common forms with authors in any format[edit source]
Citations within a page should use consistent formats. However, there is no consensus about which format is best. The following examples are for citations where one or more authors are listed in a single |author=authors
parameter, using any format. Also shown below are three separate date formats that are commonly used in Wikipedia:
- Day Month Year
{{cite web |url= |title= |author= |date= |work= |publisher= |accessdate=26 May 2024}}
- Month Day, Year
{{cite web |url= |title= |author= |date= |work= |publisher= |accessdate=May 26, 2024}}
- YYYY-MM-DD
{{cite web |url= |title= |author= |date= |work= |publisher= |accessdate=2024-05-26}}
Common forms with last1, first1; last2, first2[edit source]
The examples below will suffice for up to two authors each with first and last names; for more, just create more parameters in a similar style:
- Day Month Year
{{cite web |url= |title= |last1= |first1= |last2= |first2= |date= |work= |publisher= |accessdate=26 May 2024}}
- Month Day, Year
{{cite web |url= |title= |last1= |first1= |last2= |first2= |date= |work= |publisher= |accessdate=May 26, 2024}}
- YYYY-MM-DD
{{cite web |url= |title= |last1= |first1= |last2= |first2= |date= |work= |publisher= |accessdate=2024-05-26}}
All parameters[edit source]
When copying all parameters in either the vertical or horizontal layouts, delete those which are not needed.
- All parameters, horizontal layout
{{cite web |url= |title= |first= |last= |author= |authorlink= |coauthors= |date= |month= |year= |work= |publisher= |location= |page= |pages= |at= |language= |trans_title= |format= |doi= |archiveurl= |archivedate= |accessdate= |quote= |ref= |separator= |postscript= }}
- All parameters, vertical layout
{{cite web | url = | title = | first = | last = | author = | authorlink = | coauthors = | date = | month = | year = | work = | publisher = | location = | page = | pages = | at = | language = | trans_title = | format = | doi = | archiveurl = | archivedate = | accessdate = | quote = | ref = | separator = | postscript = }}
Required parameters[edit source]
- url: URL of online item. Start the url with the communications protocol, e.g. http://.
- title: Title of online item. This title will appear as the citation itself, hyperlinked to the URL.
Optional parameters[edit source]
- author parameters
- author
- last works with first to produce
last, first
- authorlink works either with author or with last & first to link to the appropriate wikipedia article. Does not work with URLs.
- last1, first1, ..., last9, first9 and optionally authorlink1, ..., authorlink9 for specifying more authors (note: last1, first1 and authorlink1 are synonyms for last, first and authorlink, so use either last1 or last, not both)
- coauthors: alternate way of specifying additional authors
- a date parameter
- either date: Full date of publication. Should not be wikilinked.
- or year: Year of publication, and month: Name of the month of publication. If you also have the day, use date instead. Should not be wikilinked.
- format: Format, e.g. PDF. HTML implied if not specified.
- work: If this item is part of a larger "work", such as a book, periodical or website, write the name of that work. Do not italicize; the software will do so automatically.
- publisher: Publisher, if any—for example if the website is hosted by a government service, educational institution, or company. (The publisher is not usually the name of the website, that is usually the work).
- location: Geographical place of publication.
- a page parameter
- either page: Page number if a multi-page web article and referencing a single page. "page=5" produces p. 5.
- or pages: Page numbers if a multi-page web article and referencing more than one page. "pages=5–7" produces pp. 5–7. This is for listing the pages relevant to the citation, not a total number of pages.
- or at: When the page prefix is unwanted. "at=Table 5" produces Table 5.
- language: language of publication (don't specify "English" as this is the default).
- trans_title: A translated title of the article, in case the original title is in a foreign language. Would normally be used in conjunction with the 'language' parameter.
- doi: A digital object identifier for the document, such as 10.1038/news070508-7
- archive parameters (if used, must be used both of them together)
- archiveurl: The URL of an archived copy of the page, if (or in case) the url becomes unavailable. Typically used to refer to services like WebCite and Archive.org.
- archivedate: Date when the item was archived. Should not be wikilinked.
- accessdate: Full date when item was accessed. Should not be wikilinked. This should be given if the publication date is unknown; see Citation styles.
- quote: Relevant quote from online item.
- ref: ID for anchor. By default, no anchor is generated. The ordinary nonempty value
|ref=ID
generates an anchor with the givenID
; such a linkable reference can be made the target of wikilinks to full references, especially useful in short citations like shortened notes and parenthetical referencing. The special value|ref=harv
generates an anchor suitable for the {{harv}} template; see anchors for Harvard referencing templates. - separator / postscript: The punctuation to use between fields / at the end of the citation
Duplicate periods[edit source]
By default, {{cite web}} separates some fields with periods, so don't encode those fields ending with a period or a duplicate period will be added. Example: "publisher=Camelot, Inc" will correctly show as Camelot, Inc.
but "publisher=Camelot, Inc." will incorrectly show as Camelot, Inc..

Using cite web on other Mediawiki installations[edit source]
If you want to use 'cite web' on another Mediawiki site, for example at wikia.com or at referata.com, you probably want to edit your http://yoursite.whatever.org/wiki/Mediawiki:common.css file to match the cite styles at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mediawiki:common.css . Easiest is to just copy the whole file. But if you don't want that, you probably want to add the following:
/* Styling for citations */ span.citation, cite { font-style: normal; word-wrap: break-word; } /* For linked citation numbers and document IDs, where the number need not be shown on a screen or a handheld, but should be included in the printed version */ @media screen, handheld { span.citation *.printonly { display: none; } }
The reason? If you don't, every URL will show up twice in your <references> or {{reflist}} section, because it think's it is printing on paper, and when it prints on paper, it prints out the entire URL.
