Category:CS1 errors: external links
- This category is hidden on its member pages—unless the corresponding user preference (Appearance → Show hidden categories) is set.
- These categories are used to track, build and organize lists of pages needing "attention en masse" (for example, pages using deprecated syntax), or that may need to be edited at someone's earliest convenience.
- These categories also serve to aggregate members of several lists or subcategories into a larger, more efficient list (discriminated by classifications).
- Typically, tracking categories are automatically populated by templates invoked in pages or by the MediaWiki software (see Special:TrackingCategories for an overview of the latter).
This category may be empty occasionally or even most of the time.

This is a tracking category for CS1 citations that have title-holding parameters containing external links.
External link in |<param>=
This error occurs when any of the CS1 or CS2 citation title-holding parameters – |title=, |chapter=, |publisher=, |work= or any of its aliases: |journal=, |magazine=, |newspaper=, |periodical= and |website= – hold an external link (URL). External links in these parameters corrupt the citation's metadata and can be the source of a variety of other error messages.
To resolve this error, remove the external link from the identified parameter. Consider placing the external link in a more appropriate parameter:
- for
|chapter=, the URL may belong in|chapter-url=. - for other parameters, it may belong in
|url=.
Pages with this error are automatically placed in Category:CS1 errors: external links.[a]
