MediaWiki:Cite text
IMPORTANT NOTE: Most educators and professionals do not consider it appropriate to use tertiary sources such as encyclopedias as a sole source for any information—citing an encyclopedia as an important reference in footnotes or bibliographies may result in censure or a failing grade. Wikipedia articles should be used for background information, as a reference for correct terminology and search terms, and as a starting point for further research.
As with any community-built reference, there is a possibility for error in Wikipedia's content—please check your facts against multiple sources and read our disclaimers for more information.

When using the LaTeX package url (\usepackage{url} somewhere in the preamble), which tends to give much more nicely formatted web addresses, the following may be preferred:
@misc{ wiki:xxx,
author = "Wikipedia",
title = "MediaWiki:Cite text --- Wikipedia{,} The Free Encyclopedia",
year = "2012",
url = "\url{http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Cite_text&oldid=456237747}",
