This Citation Style 1 template is used to create citations for news articles in print, video, audio or web.

Usage

Copy a blank version to use. Almost all parameter names are supported only in lower case (some initialisms, such as |isbn= have upper-case aliases like |ISBN=, which are acceptable for use). Use the "|" (pipe) character between each parameter. Unused parameters may be deleted to avoid clutter in the edit window. Some samples on this documentation page may include the current date. If the date is not current, then the page.

Previously, editors had to decide whether to use {{cite web}} or based on these templates' features. In 2014, however, most of the differences between the two templates were eliminated.

As of 29 July 2016, and have the following differences:

• can be used for offline (paper) sources whereas generates a missing URL error when no URL is provided
• accepts |issue= and |volume= parameters while does not (see , and {{cite magazine}}.)

But given the same set of valid parameters, their output is exactly the same:
