This is a convenient intermediary template, calling {{Cite web}} but with the default behaviour of a non-Twitter exclusive {{tw}}.
- By default, the first parameter is assumed to be the url, the second the date, and the third the title
- If necessary, url can be manually specified in order to work around technical limitations, such as the inclusion of special characters
- Author and accessdate can be manually specified if desired through subsequent parameters
Syntax[]
- Standard
<ref>{{cw|<insert url here>|<insert date here>|<insert title for display here>}}</ref>
- Using optional "accessdate" and "author" parameters
<ref>{{cw|<insert url here>|<insert date here>|<insert title for display here>|accessdate=<insert accessdate here>|author=<insert author here>}}</ref>
- Special characters
If special characters like = are included in the url, the user must specify the first parameter by adding url= :
<ref>{{cw|url=<insert url here>|<insert date here>|<insert title for display here>}}</ref>
- Using named references
Like all references, this template can also be used with named references.
First use of reference: <ref name=<insert ref name here>>{{cw|<insert url here>|<insert date here>|<insert title for display here>}}</ref>
Reusing the reference: <ref name=<insert ref name here>/>
