Template:Ref/doc

This template is used to create a website reference in an article. It does not support reference names or groups. The reference will appear in the following  tag, but it's preferred to use   for end-of-article reference lists.

Usage

 * author

Parameters

 * author - Required. Appears in bold with trailing period. The author of the referenced work. If no known author, or is a collective work, use author instead of publisher.
 * Can be linked to another page on the wiki:
 * url - Required. Appears with trailing, unlinked period. The way it's displayed depends on whether the title parameter is set, either like &#91;1&#93;. or Webpage Title.
 * original - Optional. Used when the original source is no longer online and a proper archive for the webpage doesn't exist, so a secondary website's copy is used as the url. Appears after the url or title, in superscript parenthesis, either like &#91;1&#93; (original). or Webpage Title (original).
 * title - Optional. Appears with a trailing, unlinked period. The title of the webpage the reference is on. Can be a Twitter handle. Displays only if url is set, in which case the title will be hyperlinked to the url.
 * publisher - Optional. Appears in italic with trailing period. The organization (ex. website's name) where the reference is published. If referencing a link on a web archive, use the reference's organization, not the archive's name. Its use is based on the conditions of the author parameter.
 * quote - Optional. Appears between quotation marks, without trailing period. A related excerpt from the reference.
 * date - Required. Appears with trailing period. The original date the reference was published. Use the same format as is used throughout the wiki: 4 January 2001.
 * Can link the date+month and the year, but not required & likely to be of no benefit.
