  • url is the URL (including the http:// prefix) of the originating site, preferably link the particular page that links wikipedia, e. g. is going to hit this article heavily, e.g. http://science.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=07/06/17/183242.
  • site is the simple description of the website, e.g. Slashdot.
  • small if set to yes, makes a small version of this template
