Goal
This template is used to cite online sources in wiki articles.
Usage
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 two separate date formats that are commonly used:
- Day Month Year
{{cite web |url= |title= |author= |date= |work= |publisher= |accessdate=24 February 2012}}
- Month Day, Year
{{cite web |url= |title= |author= |date= |work= |publisher= |accessdate=February 24, 2012}}
All parameters
When copying all parameters delete those which are not needed.
{{cite web |url= |title= |first= |last= |author= |authorlink= |coauthors= |date= |month= |year= |work= |publisher= |page= |pages= |language= |format= |id= |archiveurl= |archivedate= |accessdate= |quote= }}
