 | This is a documentation subpage for Template:External links. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
 | If you plan to make breaking changes to this template, move it, or nominate it for deletion, please notify Twinkle's users and maintainers at Wikipedia talk:Twinkle as a courtesy, as the standard installation of Twinkle adds and removes this template. Thank you! |
When to use
Add this to the top of the External links section whenever:
- There are too many links for this article. (Most editors object to more than about eight or sometimes ten links, but the best number for a given article depends on the specific circumstances, and may range from zero to more than a dozen.)
- One or more of the links present (regardless of number) are inappropriate for any reason.
Please consider "weeding the link farm" yourself, rather than using this tag to ask someone else to do it. Don't forget to remove this template when the concerns appear to have been resolved.
Usage
Use:
- {{External links}} or
- {{External links|section}} to apply to a single section; or
- {{External links|date=June 2024}}
This template will categorize tagged articles into Category:Wikipedia external links cleanup and Category:Wikipedia spam cleanup.
- This template is a self-reference.
- Please do not substitute this template.
If this is a perennial problem, consider using {{Prone to spam}} on the talk page or substituting {{No more links}} in the external links section.

- {{No more links}} - A similar message is inserted as a <!-- comment -->.
- {{Further reading cleanup}}, same idea, but for non-website lists
