→References using links: text adjustments
You can use any complex portion of text for a reference. Please keep in mind that it will be converted into an article footnote, so you better keep reference texts as short as possible. The following code sample shows how to use a simple external link in a reference:
<nowiki><ref>[httphttps://www.facebook.com Facebook link to the information]</ref></nowiki>
The external link is always written in '''single square brackets''', with the URL '''followed by a space character ''' and the URL description or title.<ref>[httphttps://www.facebook.com Facebook link to the information]</ref>

Templates can use parameters, and the more parameters, the more you may want to use a vertical notation for a reference. The listed templates try to offer copyable template code in both vertial and horizontal notation. The formatting results are the same. '''Note:''' Because the vertical notation is clearer and helps to avoid and find errors, we recommend using vertical notation. Here is a REFweb example:
