Template:Subscription/doc
The Template:Tlc template can be used to flag an external link that requires a paid subscription.
Use the Template:Tlc template when:
- You create or find a link to an outside website
- in a reference citation
- OR
- in a paragraph within the body of an article
- OR
- in the "Outside links" section of an article
- AND
- a reader must pay to subscribe to the website to gain access to the linked page.
Usage
Using Template:Tlc will place a note by the link.
Append the Template:Tlc template directly after the link or citation template, leaving the original link intact. If the Template:Tlc template is not placed directly after the link or citation template, the template will not be correctly detected by automated tools.
If the external link is part of a reference citation, the Template:Tlc template should be placed directly after the link or citation template but before the </ref> tag. Placing Template:Tlc directly after the link or citation template but before the </ref> tag will cause the subscription required message to appear in the footnote reference area of the article rather than in the body of the text. Placing the message in the body of the text is not recommended in this situation.
