This template is used to refer to URL'sURLs. This allows us to track where raw URLs are used, so we can keep them up to date easily.
 
To use, include {{t|url ref|url&#61;<nowiki>httphttps://...</nowiki>|url text&#61;|site&#61;}}
* {{{url}}} replacesand {{{text}}} are the URLlink and link-text
* {{{textsite}}} replacesindicates which website the textpage is on
* {{{date}}} is the publication date (yyyy-mm-dd)
* {{{pre}}} is included before the link
* {{{post}}} is included after the link
* {{{name}}} replaces {{{text}}} or {{{two}}} as the referencegenerated name
* {{{group}}} sets the reference group
 
For example, <code><nowiki>{{url ref|url=http://inkthinker.deviantart.com/art/The-Way-of-Kings-Skyeels-180124400|text=Skyeel Illustration Description|site=[[Inkthinker]]'s DeviantArt}}</nowiki></code>, which produces the following in the references list:{{url ref|url=http://inkthinker.deviantart.com/art/The-Way-of-Kings-Skyeels-180124400|text=Skyeel Illustration Description|site=[[Inkthinker]]'s DeviantArt}}
<references />
 
 
Because this reference template often requires a large amount of text, it's better to replace <code><nowiki><references /></nowiki></code> with
 
<pre><references>
 
</references></pre>
 
and then place all url references between the <code><nowiki><references></nowiki></code> and <code><nowiki></references></nowiki></code> tags. When you do this, you should add <code>|name=''name''</code> to the url reference, where ''name'' is a unique identifier for the reference. Then, you will be able to cite this reference in the body of the article with {{t|ref|name&#61;''name''}}. If you are citing the same url reference multiple times, you must use this method; otherwise it will result in a reference error because the template tries to create two references with the same name.
 
Technically, you could place the named url reference somewhere in the body of the article and then use {{t|ref}} to cite that reference elsewhere in the article. Most of the time, however, it's simpler and more elegant to just put the named url ref between the references tags and use {{t|ref}} everywhere in the article.
