<br />
== When to use ==<br />
<br />
This template indicates that the article uses many improperly formatted or non-formatted inline citations that require large-scale conversion to an [[WP:INLINECITE|accepted form of inline citation]].<br />
<br />
== How to use ==<br />
<br />
To add this template to an article, copy and paste:<br />
* {{tlx|{{PAGENAME}}|<nowiki>{{subst:DATE}}</nowiki>}}<br />
:or<br />
* {{tlx|{{PAGENAME}}|date{{=}}{{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTYEAR}}}}<br />
<br />
Both options result in the same output.<br />
<br />
* This template will add the page to [[:Category:Articles needing footnote reformatting]] and [[:Category:Articles covered by WikiProject Wikify]].<br />
* A [[WP:BOT|bot]] will add the date for you at a later time if you forgot.<br />
<br />
== Examples ==<br />
<br />
A standard, correct way of formatting the following citations (with some acceptable variations as described at [[Wikipedia:Citing sources]]) would be:<br />
<br />
<blockquote>{{em|Correct}}: {{xt|Australia has a government.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.australia.gov.au/ |title=Australian Government |author=Australian Government Press Agency |date=25 November 2009 |accessdate=25 November 2009}}</ref>}}<br />
<br />
{{Reflist-talk}}<br />
</blockquote><br />
<br />
The following are examples of improperly formatted or non-formatted inline citations. This template is appropriate for articles that contain many such citations, therefore requiring large-scale conversion.<br />
<br />
=== Embedded link ===<br />
<br />
<blockquote>{{em|Incorrect}}: {{!xt|Australia has a government [http://www.australia.gov.au/ Australian Government].}}</blockquote><br />
<br />
or:<br />
<br />
<blockquote>{{em|Incorrect}}: {{!xt|Australia has a government.[http://www.australia.gov.au/]}}</blockquote><br />
<br />
=== Manual number ===<br />
<br />
<blockquote>{{em|Incorrect}}: {{!xt|Australia has a government<sup>see footnote 1</sup>}}</blockquote><br />
<br />
=== Parenthetical reference ===<br />
<br />
Inline [[Wikipedia:Parenthetical referencing|parenthetical referencing]] was a previously accepted citation system that is now [[Deprecation|deprecated]] per [[WP:PARREF]]. The recommendation is to convert inline parenthetical references to [[Help:Shortened footnotes|shortened footnotes]] (as depicted below) or [[Help:Footnotes|regular footnotes]] (as depicted in the first example above) or [[Help:List-defined references|footnotes with list-defined references]].<br />
<br />
<blockquote>{{em|Incorrect}}: {{!xt|Australia has a government (Australian Government Press Agency, 2009).}}</blockquote><br />
<blockquote>{{em|Correct}}: {{xt|Australia has a government.{{sfn |Davidson |Court |2011 |p=1}}}}<br />
