Hello is there a "Dead link"-like template for geoblocked links, such as https://itsapkgru.com/the-ultimate-guide-to-pubg-mobile-kr-download-no-1-unleash-the-korean-action/ Bouzinac ( talk) 09:24, 20 March 2021 (UTC)
{{
Cite web|...|url-access=limited}}
. It would probably be better if we had some way to indicate this issue in particular, instead of just "limited". —

¢ 😼 22:17, 26 August 2023 (UTC)Questia is dead. Will this template help if we tag Questia.com links? (If not, should we remove the questia.com urls from the citations?) Thanks. – S. Rich ( talk) 01:50, 12 July 2021 (UTC)
At one time long ago I remember the documentation for this template suggesting placing it both within the reference and after it,<ref>This is a reference with a URL{{Dead link|date=January 2007}}</ref>{{Dead link|date=January 2007}}
so that the superscript note appeared both in the text and the Reflist. I have tended to do this, but on rechecking note that its use is now recommended only once, within the reference. It seems to me to make sense to be notified in the text that a link is dead, and also in the reference list.

dead link Does anyone have any comment on this? Should I change what I have been doing to follow the documentation change?

</ref>
is in
this edit (June 2008); it gives the option of placing either before or after, but not in both positions.
This edit (November 2008) recommends against putting the tag after the </ref>
. The position was flipped with
this edit (November 2009) and corrected two hours later in
this edit. It was substantially rewritten in
this edit (January 2018), but the position is the same: {{
dead link}}
goes before </ref>

If a cited url is both dead and previously unarchived, the template documentation says to use |fix-attempted=yes
. That essentially means that the permanent dead link is going to stay appended to that source for all time. Is my understanding of that accurate? —
