::Hrm. I'm not so obsessed on names. I could live with that. Reasonable short and is compatible with the cite xxx pattern. OTH, cite web is closer to the old "web reference", so "cite web" might be easier to accept for editors as it also has "web" in the name. uri is technically correct, but I would guess that most editors do no know what an uri is. --[[User:Adrian Buehlmann|Adrian Buehlmann]] 13:53, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
 
=== field name changes ===
::Also, it would be nice if before we move, we discuss some field name changes, such as ''date'' and ''year'' to ''accessdate'' and ''accessyear'' (easier to understand their use), and likewise ''publishyear'' to ''year''. This won't be hard to do with [[WP:AWB|AWB]] as part of the move, right? [[User:Gracefool|··gracefool]] |[[User talk:gracefool|☺]] 13:28, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
 
:::Simple parameter renames are no problem. Of course I agree dicussing first. I've added a warning text to {{tl|cite web}} so that it's not used prematurely. We should also wait putting the deprecated tag here until there is consensus what to do exactly. This went wrong on book ref last time. --[[User:Adrian Buehlmann|Adrian Buehlmann]] 13:39, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
 
:::I agree with the renames date → accessdate, year → accessyear, publishyear → year. --[[User:Adrian Buehlmann|Adrian Buehlmann]] 13:47, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
 
I support the above change as well, makes usage of various cite xxx templates more consistent with each other. --[[User:BACbKA|BACbKA]] 15:37, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
