• url: जिथे प्रकाशन चे मजकूर भेटू शकते, त्या ऑनलाइन स्थालाचे URL. जर title ला wikilink केला आहे, तर हे वापरू शकत नहीं. जर लागू असल्यास, तो दुवा विशिष्ट संदर्भित पानवर/पानांवर निर्देर्शित करू शकतो. URL पासून ट्रॅकिंग प्रचाल काढून टाकावे, उदाहरणार्थ, #ixzz2rBr3aO94 किंवा ?utm_source=google&utm_medium=...&utm_term=...&utm_campaign=....
  • format: Format of the work referred to by url; for example: PDF, DOC, or XLS; displayed in parentheses after title. HTML is implied and should not be specified. Automatically added when a PDF icon is displayed. Does not change the external link icon. Note: External link icons do not include alt text; thus, they do not add format information for the visually impaired.
URLs must begin with a supported URI scheme. http:// and https:// will be supported by all browsers; however, ftp://, gopher://, irc://, ircs://, mailto: and news: may require a plug-in or an external application and should normally be avoided. IPv6 host-names are currently not supported.
If URLs in citation template parameters contain certain characters, then they will not display and link correctly. Those characters need to be percent-encoded. For example, a space must be replaced by %20. To encode the URL, replace the following characters with:
sp " ' < > [ ] { | }
%20 %22 %27 %3c %3e %5b %5d %7b %7c %7d
Single apostrophes do not need to be encoded; however, unencoded multiples will be parsed as italic or bold markup. Single curly closing braces also do not need to be encoded; however, an unencoded pair will be parsed as the double closing braces for the template transclusion.
  1. ^ a b Access-date and archive-date in references should all have the same format – either the format used for publication dates, or YYYY-MM-DD.
