==Sources==
). - Format date as shown above.
- Always try to cite multiple independent sources.
- Articles that don't provide a URL are listed at Category:Articles with broken source templates.
- Category:Citation templates lists templates for offline news sources.
- For unsupported URL schemas (like mms:) use brokenURL=true.
- For publications (the 'pub=' or 'publisher=' parameter) please specify the exact same name under which the publication appears on Wikipedia.
- On those rare occasions when publication name should differ from publication link target, use additional parameter 'pubtarget='. You can also use this to specify a target project other than English Wikipedia.
- For an unavailable source (brokenURL=true) of an archived article, you may provide information about archival copies of the source using 'archiveurl=' and 'archivedescription='.
