Template documentation

This template is used to cite Web-based sources. It works similarly to Wikipedia's Template:Cite web. But it accepts fewer parameters and is much less polished.

This template accepts the following parameters. All parameter names must be in lowercase.

author
date
url (required)
title (required)
work
publisher
at
accessdate
quote
