Template:Cleanup bare URLs
| This template, module and/or subpages are based on or ported over completely to BattleTechWiki, using the Creative Commons Licensed content from this page on Wikipedia (The original authors of this page are shown on here). |
Usage[edit]
Purpose[edit]
A bare URL is a link to a website with no identifying information except the link itself. It is not just a citation style that leaves the URL visible to the reader. However, these visible URLs should be accompanied by useful descriptions of the page being linked, such as information about the author, title, and/or publication. This template will add tagged articles to a cleanup category.
