Description

This template was previously used as the template for directly citing sources, but was in March 2020 redesign to act as a proxy for {{Refurl}} which now handles references with included snippets as well.

In essence, writing {{Refsnip|url=|title=|date=|snippet=}} is the same as writing {{Refurl|url=|title=|date=|snippet=}}

Please see {{Refurl}} for the applicable documentation.
