This template is used to [[WP:CITE|cite sources]] in Wikipedia. It is specifically for web sites which are not news sources. This template replaces deprecated '''template:web reference'''. It provides lower case parameters only.

A general discussion of the use of templates for adding citation of open-source web content to Wikipedia articles is available at [[Wikipedia:Citation templates|citation templates]].

==Usage==
;Common form for cases where little is known about authorship of the page (with current date)
<tt><nowiki>{{cite web |url= |title= |accessdate=</nowiki>{{CURRENTYEAR}}-{{CURRENTMONTH}}-{{CURRENTDAY2}}<nowiki> |format= |work= }}</nowiki></tt>

;Using last, first (with current date)
<tt><nowiki>{{cite web |url= |title= |accessdate=</nowiki>{{CURRENTYEAR}}-{{CURRENTMONTH}}-{{CURRENTDAY2}}<nowiki> |last= |first= |authorlink= |coauthors= |date= |year= |month= |format= |work= |publisher= |pages= |language= |archiveurl= |archivedate= |quote= }}</nowiki></tt>

;Using author (with current date)
<tt><nowiki>{{cite web |url= |title= |accessdate=</nowiki>{{CURRENTYEAR}}-{{CURRENTMONTH}}-{{CURRENTDAY2}}<nowiki> |author= |authorlink= |coauthors= |date= |year= |month= |format= |work= |publisher= |pages= |language= |archiveurl= |archivedate= |quote= }}</nowiki></tt>

;Using non-linked retrieved date, last, first
<tt><nowiki>{{cite web |url= |title= |accessmonthday= |accessyear= |last= |first= |authorlink= |coauthors= |date= |year= |month= |format= |work= |publisher= |pages= |language= |archiveurl= |archivedate= |quote= }}</nowiki></tt>

;Using non-linked retrieved date, author
<tt><nowiki>{{cite web |url= |title= |accessmonthday= |accessyear= |author= |authorlink= |coauthors= |date= |year= |month= |format= |work= |publisher= |pages= |language= |archiveurl= |archivedate= |quote= }}</nowiki></tt>

;All parameters, horizontal format (delete the ones you don't need)
<tt><nowiki>{{cite web |url= |title= |accessdate= |accessmonthday= |accessdaymonth = |accessyear= |author= |last= |first= |authorlink= |coauthors= |date= |year= |month= |format= |work= |publisher= |pages= |language= |doi= |archiveurl= |archivedate= |quote= }}</nowiki></tt>

===Required parameters===
*'''url''': URL of online item.
*'''title''': Title of online item.
''For producing a [[WP:CONTEXT#Dates|wikilinked date]] of retrieval:''
:*'''accessdate''': Full date when item was accessed, in [[ISO 8601]] YYYY-MM-DD format, for example "accessdate = {{CURRENTYEAR}}-{{CURRENTMONTH}}-{{CURRENTDAY2}}". ''Must not be wikilinked''
''For producing a non-wikilinked date of retrieval:''
:*'''accessmonthday''' and '''accessyear''': Month and day when item was accessed, for example "accessmonthday = May 10", and year when item was accessed, for example "accessyear = 2005". Produces: ''Retrieved on May 10, 2006.''
:*'''accessdaymonth''' and '''accessyear''': Month and day when item was accessed, for example "accessmonthday = 10 May", and year when item was accessed, for example "accessyear = 2005". Produces: ''Retrieved on 10 May 2006.''

===Optional parameters===
*'''author''': Author
**'''last''' works with '''first''' to produce <code>last, first</code>
**'''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
*'''date''': Full date of publication, preferably in [[ISO 8601]] YYYY-MM-DD format, e.g. ''2006-02-17''. May be wikilinked.
**OR: '''year''': Year of publication, and '''month''': Name of the month of publication. If you also have the day, use ''date'' instead. Must not be wikilinked.
*'''format''': Format, e.g. PDF. HTML implied if not specified.
*'''work''': If this item is part of a larger work, name of that work.
*'''publisher''': Publisher, if any.
*'''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. 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:
*:<code><nowiki>pages = [http://www.example.org/file.pdf#page=123 p. 123]</nowiki></code>
*'''language''': language of publication (don't specify "English" as this is the default).
* '''doi''': A [[digital object identifier]] for the document, such as ''<nowiki>10.1038/news070508-7</nowiki>''
**'''Doilabel''': If the doi contains some characters that must be [[Percent-encoding|escaped]], use "doilabel" for the unescaped version. See {{tl|doi}}: "id" is equivalent to "doi" and "label" is "doilabel"
*'''archiveurl''': URL of the archive location of the item (requires '''archivedate''')
*'''archivedate''': Date when the item was archived (requires '''archiveurl'''), in [[ISO 8601]] YYYY-MM-DD format, e.g. ''2006-02-17''. Must not be wikilinked; it will be linked automatically.
*'''quote''': Relevant quote from online item.
