Is this the template to add a Weblink section to a wiki page?
I'm trying to learn exactly how to add a Weblink section to a page and wondering if this is the template and, if so, how do you use it to add those edit and update links I see nest to the Weblink section title on various wiki pages? Also, does this template work for all languages? Heideana (talk) 21:15, 13 March 2023 (UTC)


 * User:Heideana, on the English Wikipedia we call the section you're talking about "". This particular template is what we call a citation template wrapper. It's a shortcut for creating a full citation to a very specific source, with only one variable parameter. The general class of citation templates can be read about at Help:Citation style 1, although you may want to see WP:REFB for an introduction first.Please do note that citations / references are bibliographical notes to demonstrate that a thing written in an article is not made up. These often include a URL, but not always (especially for book sources, newspaper archives, and similar). External links ("Weblinks" on the German Wikipedia and maybe others) are helpful other websites that haven't been used as a source of information in the article, usually because they're not reliable, not independent (like official websites of companies), or in some other way don't meet the English Wikipedia's sourcing requirements. There are pretty strict rules about what sort of External links are appropriate to add. Hope that helps. Folly Mox (talk) 04:48, 22 October 2023 (UTC)
