{{documentation subpage}}
===Usage===
This template may be used for creating citations in "References" sections and on discussion pages. Do not use the template for online versions of books or journal articles (including magazines and newspapers) – use {{temp|cite-book}} or {{temp|cite-journal}} instead.

For indicating quotations in dictionary entries, use {{temp|quote-web}}.

===Sample templates===
;Most commonly used parameters
<pre style="overflow:auto">
{{cite-web|author=|authorlink=|title=|url=|archiveurl=|archivedate=|work=|publisher=|date=|accessdate=|text=}}
</pre>

;All available parameters
<pre style="overflow:auto">
{{cite-web|author=|last=|first=|authorlink=|author2=|last2=|first2=|authorlink2=|author3=|last3=|first3=|authorlink3=|author4=|last4=|first4=|authorlink4=|author5=|last5=|first5=|authorlink5=|coauthors=|quotee=|entry=|trans-entry=|entryurl=|title=|trans-title=|titleurl=|mainauthor=|mainauthors=|editor=|editors=|work=|trans-work=|url=|archiveurl=|archivedate=|edition=|format=|location=|publisher=|date=|month=|year=|year_published=|nodate=|accessdate=|volume=|page=|pages=|pageurl=|section=|sectionurl=|column=|columns=|columnurl=|doi=|text=|passage=|text_block=|passage_block=|t=|translation=|lang=|usenodot=|nodot=}}
</pre>

Certain basic parameters can be used in the template without any named parameters, as follows:

<pre style="overflow:auto" id="blank-shorthand">
#* {{cite-web|[date]|[author]|[title]|[work]|[url]|[passage]|[translation]}}
</pre>

These numbered parameters will not work if any of the parameters contains an equals ("=") sign. To work around this, replace the equals sign with the {{temp|1==}} template (which generates an equals sign in the output): <code><nowiki>http://foo.com?id{{=}}bar</nowiki></code> in place of <code><nowiki>http://foo.com?id=bar</nowiki></code>.

The following example:

: {{temp|cite-web|2=author=Jim Fay|3=title=The Choctaw Expression ‘Okeh’ and the Americanism ‘Okay’|4=url=<nowiki>http://www.illinoisprairie.info/chocokeh.htm</nowiki>|5=archiveurl=<nowiki>https://web.archive.org/web/20101224185657/http://www.illinoisprairie.info/chocokeh.htm</nowiki>|6=archivedate=24 December 2010|7=work=Illinoisprairie.info|8=date=16 September 2009}}.

produces this:

: {{cite-web|author=Jim Fay|title=The Choctaw Expression ‘Okeh’ and the Americanism ‘Okay’|url=http://www.illinoisprairie.info/chocokeh.htm|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20101224185657/http://www.illinoisprairie.info/chocokeh.htm|archivedate=24 December 2010|work=Illinoisprairie.info|date=16 September 2009}}.

! Parameter
! Description
|- style="vertical-align:top;"
| style="text-align:center;" | <code>author</code><br>or<br><code>last</code> and <code>first</code>
| The author's name. Use either <code>author</code>, or <code>last</code> and <code>first</code>, not both. Additional authors can be added using the parameters <code>author2</code> to <code>author5</code>, or <code>last2</code> and <code>first2</code> to <code>last5</code> and <code>first5</code>.
|- style="vertical-align:top;"
| style="text-align:center;" | <code>authorlink</code>
| The name of an [https://en.wikipedia.org English Wikipedia] article about the author, which will be linked to the author's name.

Alternatively, link each person's name directly, like this: "<code><nowiki>author=[[w:Kathleen Taylor (biologist)|Kathleen Taylor]]</nowiki></code>" or "<code><nowiki>author={{w|Samuel Johnson}}</nowiki></code>".
|- style="vertical-align:top;"
| style="text-align:center;" | <code>coauthors</code>

| The name(s) of the translator(s) of the webpage. Separate multiple names with semicolons.
|- style="vertical-align:top;"
| style="text-align:center;" | <code>mainauthor</code> or <code>mainauthors</code>

|- style="vertical-align:top;"
| style="text-align:center;" | <code>editor</code> or <code>editors</code>
| The name of one or more editors of the website.
|- style="vertical-align:top;"

|- style="vertical-align:top;"
| style="text-align:center;" | <code>trans-title</code><br>or<br><code>trans-entry</code>

|- style="vertical-align:top;"
| style="text-align:center;" | <code>titleurl</code> or <code>entryurl</code>, and <code>url</code>
| The parameters {{para|titleurl}} and {{para|entryurl}} can be used to specify the [[w:Uniform Resource Locator|URL]] or web address of a webpage to be linked to {{para|title}} or {{para|entry}} respectively, when it is desired to use {{para|url}} to link to the home page of the website.

If {{para|entry}} is specified but {{para|entryurl}} is not, and {{para|url}} is also specified, the value of {{para|url}} is linked to the value of {{para|entry}}.

''Do not link to any website that has content in breach of {{w|copyright}}.''
|- style="vertical-align:top;"
| style="text-align:center;" | <code>archiveurl</code> and <code>archivedate</code><br>or<br><code>accessdate</code>
| Use <code>archiveurl</code> and <code>archivedate</code> (which must be used together) to indicate the URL or web address of a webpage on a website such as the [https://archive.org Internet Archive] or [https://perma.cc Perma.cc] at which the webpage has been archived, and the date on which the webpage was archived.

Alternatively, if the webpage cannot be archived, use <code>accessdate</code> to indicate when its URL was accessed. (If the webpage has been archived, it is unnecessary to use these parameters.)
|- style="vertical-align:top;"
| style="text-align:center;" | <code>format</code>
| The format of the webpage, for example, "<kbd>blog</kbd>" or "<kbd>PDF</kbd>".
|- style="vertical-align:top;"

| If the name of the website is not in English, this parameter can be used to provide an English translation of the name.
|- style="vertical-align:top;"
| style="text-align:center;" | <code>location</code>
| The location(s) where the website was published. If more than one location is stated, separate the locations with semicolons, like this: "<kbd>London; New York, N.Y.</kbd>".
|- style="vertical-align:top;"
| style="text-align:center;" | <code>publisher</code>
| The name of one or more publishers of the website. If more than one publisher is stated, separate the names with semicolons.

| The date, or both month and year, that the webpage was published. Use either <code>date</code>, or both <code>month</code> and <code>year</code>, not both.

If no year or date is specified, the template displays the message "(Can we [[:Category:Requests for date|date]] this quote?)". The message can be suppressed using "<code>nodate=1</code>" or "<code>nodate=yes</code>", but it is recommended that you try to provide a date or approximate date rather than do so.
|- style="vertical-align:top;"
| style="text-align:center;" | <code>year_published</code>
| If <code>year</code> is used to state the year when the original version of the website was published, <code>year_published</code> can be used to state the year in which the version quoted from was published, for example, "<code><nowiki>|year=2005|year_published=2015</nowiki></code>".
|- style="vertical-align:top;"
| style="text-align:center;" | <code>volume</code>
| The volume number, if the website has one.
|- style="vertical-align:top;"

|- style="vertical-align:top;"
| style="text-align:center;" | <code>pageurl</code>
| The URL or web address of a specific page or pages of a document on the website. The page number(s) will be linked to this webpage.
|- style="vertical-align:top;"
| style="text-align:center;" | <code>section</code>

|- style="vertical-align:top;"
| style="text-align:center;" | <code>sectionurl</code>

|- style="vertical-align:top;"
| style="text-align:center;" | <code>column</code><br>or<br><code>columns</code>
| The column number or range of column numbers of the webpage. Use an en dash to separate the column numbers in the range.
|- style="vertical-align:top;"
| style="text-align:center;" | <code>columnurl</code>
| The URL or web address of the webpage containing the column(s) of the website referred to. The column number(s) will be linked to this webpage.
|- style="vertical-align:top;"
| style="text-align:center;" | <code>text</code> or <code>passage</code>
| A passage from the website that you wish to quote. If the passage exceeds 300 characters, it is automatically displayed in a separate text block. To suppress this, use <code>text_block=no</code> or <code>passage_block=no</code>.
|- style="vertical-align:top;"
| style="text-align:center;" | <code>text_block=no</code> or <code>passage_block</code>
| This parameter can be used in two ways:
* To have the template display a quote in a separate text block.
* Use <code>text_block=no</code> or <code>passage_block=no</code> together with <code>text</code> or <code>passage</code> to ensure that the quote is not displayed in a separate text block (see <code>text</code> or <code>passage</code> above).
|- style="vertical-align:top;"
| style="text-align:center;" | <code>t</code> or <code>translation</code>
| A [[translation]] of the passage.
|- style="vertical-align:top;"
| style="text-align:center;" | <code>lang</code>, <code>language</code>, or <code>worklang</code>
| A code indicating the language that the webpage is written in (preferred; for a list of the codes, see [[Wiktionary:List of languages]]), or the names of one or more languages written in full. It is unnecessary to indicate the language if the webpage is written in English.
|- style="vertical-align:top;"
| style="text-align:center;" | <code>usenodot</code>
| If {{para|usenodot|1}} or {{para|usenodot|yes}} is specified, a full stop (period) is added to the end of the citation by default. The parameter {{para|nodot|1}} or {{para|nodot|yes}} can then be used to suppress this punctuation.
