Usage

Editors occasionally encounter dead links either within a paragraph or a reference citation.

Before considering whether to use the {{dead link}} template it is often useful to make a search for an archive copy of the dead link and thereby avoid using the tag altogether. All {{cite}} templates have the facility for adding |archivedate= and |archiveurl= parameters for linking to an archive copy.

Using {{Dead link}} will place a note by the URL and add the article to one of the Category:Articles with dead external links categories.

Append this template directly after the link or template, leaving the original link intact. Not doing so will prevent detection from automated tools. If the citation contains multiple URLs (e.g. chapterurl and url) in a template, and only one is broken, you can use  to explain which one is broken.

If the article uses clickable footnotes, then this tag should be placed just before the </ref> that contains the dead link. The notice will then correctly appear in the reference section (instead of in the body of the text, which is not recommended).

Avoid using this template when the reference is fully adequate without the link. In this case, simply remove the link. For example, if a {{cite journal}} template is used with a DOI, remove the |url= parameter.

Avoid using this template to identify dead external links that are not used as references for article content. Instead, dead external links should usually be removed. See the guideline for external links.

Common form (with current date)

{{Dead link|date=డిసెంబరు 2024}}

Optional parameters

url: Provides a history of the linked page via the Wayback Machine. Set only if history actually exists, as otherwise it is misleading to users and editors.
date: Month name followed by year, for use by the categorization system. Use date=డిసెంబరు 2024.
If you don't add a date parameter, a bot will date your entry with the month and year at a later time.
bot: Bot accounts specify the |bot= parameter as a sign that the tag was added by an automated process. Set as bot=<bot name>.

Caveats

Avoid using free links (e.g. http://www.example.org/{{Dead link}}) as software unable to handle templates may read an incorrect link. Add brackets if necessary.
Avoid complicated formatting. Nesting inside a template is generally not supported well.
Avoid using [ ] { | } < > characters between the end of the external link and {{Dead link}}, as they are often used to format text.
