Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

This template is used on approximately 920 pages and changes may be widely noticed. Test changes in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them.

This template is an inline alternative to ((Cleanup bare URLs)), for use ONLY with links to plain text files.

Usage

Paste this after a bare-URL reference/link to a plain text file:

((Bare URL plain text|date=January 2024))

It is best to place the tag inside a citation, just before the closing </ref> tag:

<ref>http://grao.bg/tna/tab02.txt ((bare URL plain text|date=January 2024))</ref>
- Result: ^[1]

References

^ http://grao.bg/tna/tab02.txt^{[bare URL plain text file]}

This will still categorize the page for cleanup without cluttering the present paragraph with "^{[bare URL plain text file]}", and it will also help track down the citation to improve by keeping the cleanup tag in the citation. When doing it this way, the date must be manually entered; it cannot be done with the ((Bare URL plain text|((subst:DATE)))) shortcut method, because template substitution does not work inside <ref>...</ref> tags.
