Template:Onion Official site/doc

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Usage

[edit]

To be used to provide Tor/Onion links, analogously to {{Official website}}. Provide the domain name, without .onion, as the first parameter. (Unlike {{Official website}}, this template cannot access the wikidata entry automatically.)

Recommendation: Due to the impossibility of confirming a site's authenticity from the domain name alone, it is considered good wiki practice to cite a reliable source for the domain. Typically this citation is done somewhere in the body of the article, or in the site infobox (use the recommended {{Onion URL}} in the infobox).

You can use this template in two forms, depending on whether you have whitelisted the .onion domain.

  • For most onion sites, which are automatically blacklisted, use {{Onion Official site|facebookcorewwwi}} produces:
    Official Tor site: facebookcorewwwi.onion Tor network(Accessing link help)
  • For onion sites where you've obtained a whitelist exemption, you may use {{Onion Official site|facebookcorewwwi|whitelisted=yes}} which produces:
    Official Tor site Tor network(Accessing link help)


IMPORTANT: Currently wikipedia has a blacklist on most .onion links. Before using this template to produce hyperlinks, it is necessary to request a whitelisting of the intended link! Current whitelisted sites (as of 19 Sep 2023 -- search the MediaWiki:Spam-whitelist for the string ".onion" to find all whitelisted sites):

  • facebookcorewwwi.onion
  • facebookwkhpilnemxj7asaniu7vnjjbiltxjqhye3mhbshg7kx5tfyd.onion
  • silkroadvb5piz3r.onion
  • eqt5g4fuenphqinx.onion
  • dstormer6em3i4km.onion
  • eqt5g4fuenphqinx.onion
  • assmkedzgorodn7o.onion
