This [[Wikipedia:Template namespace|template]] is used to cite online sources in Wikipedia articles. {{tl|Cite news}} can also be used when citing a news source; for general information about citations in Wikipedia articles, see [[WP:CITE|Wikipedia:cite sources]].
 
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 forms===
;Common form (with current date)
<tt><nowiki>{{cite web |url= |title= |accessdate=</nowiki>{{CURRENTYEAR}}-{{CURRENTMONTH}}-{{CURRENTDAY2}}<nowiki> |work= |publisher= |date= }}</nowiki></tt>
 
;Using last, first and coauthor(s) (with current date)
<tt><nowiki>{{cite web |url= |title= |accessdate=</nowiki>{{CURRENTYEAR}}-{{CURRENTMONTH}}-{{CURRENTDAY2}}<nowiki> |last= |first= |coauthors= |date= |work= |publisher=}}</nowiki></tt>
 
;Using author (with current date)
<tt><nowiki>{{cite web |url= |title= |accessdate=</nowiki>{{CURRENTYEAR}}-{{CURRENTMONTH}}-{{CURRENTDAY2}}<nowiki> |author= |date= |work= |publisher=}}</nowiki></tt>
 
;Using non-linked retrieved date, last, first
<tt><nowiki>{{cite web |url= |title= |accessmonthday= |accessyear= |last= |first= |date= |work= |publisher= }}</nowiki></tt>
 
;Using non-linked retrieved date, author
<tt><nowiki>{{cite web |url= |title= |accessmonthday= |accessyear= |author= |date= |work= |publisher= }}</nowiki></tt>
 
===All parameters===
When copying all parameters, in either horizontal or vertical layout, delete those you don't need.
;All parameters, horizontal layout
<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>

}}</pre>
 
====Required parameters====
*'''url''': URL of online item. Start the url with the communications protocol e.g. <nowiki>http://</nowiki>.
*'''title''': Title of online item.
*'''''Choose a date format''''' from the following options that matches the main text of the article.
:''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; it will be linked automatically.'' If the American/International date format is required for consistency within the article, use '''accessyear''' and '''accessmonthday''' or '''accessdaymonth''', as American/International dates will not display correctly if used for '''accessdate'''.
:''For producing a non-wikilinked date of retrieval:''
::*'''accessmonthday''' and '''accessyear''': Month and day when item was accessed, for example "accessmonthday = May 10", <u>and</u> year when item was accessed, for example "accessyear = 2006". Produces: ''Retrieved on May 10, 2006.''
::*'''accessdaymonth''' and '''accessyear''': Month and day when item was accessed, for example "accessdaymonth= 10 May", <u>and</u> year when item was accessed, for example "accessyear = 2006". 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 in the same format as the main text of the article. If in [[ISO 8601]] YYYY-MM-DD format, e.g. ''2006-02-17'', must not be wikilinked; it will be linked automatically.''
**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", such as a book, periodical or website, write the name of that work.
*'''publisher''': Publisher, if any—for example if the website is hosted by a government service, educational institution, or company
*'''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:
*:<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''': 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|The Internet Archive]].  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. This field does not support American/International dates (they will display incorrectly as redlinks if used).
*'''quote''': Relevant quote from online item.
