Reference template for a forum post:
* <code>{{{url}}}</code> - The exact URL of the post.
* <code>{{{id}}}</code> - Copy the post ID from the URL (for example, <code>/#post-129520</code>). If referencing an entire thread, you may (optionally) use the thread ID instead.
* <code>{{{title}}}</code> - If referencing a '''post''', copy the most suitable heading or title present in the post itself, if available. If referencing a '''thread''', use the thread title here. If you're specifically referencing the first post of the thread instead, place only the ID of the first post here (the first post also has an ID that is different from the thread ID).
* <code>{{{thread}}}</code> - Title of the entire thread if referencing a '''post'''.
* <code>{{{author}}}</code> - Username of the forum user. Use a wikilink if possible, e.g. <code><nowiki>[[Department of State|Dept. State]]</nowiki></code>.
* <code>{{{date}}}</code> - Exact date of the forum post.
* <code>{{{access-date}}}</code> - The most recent date that you, the editor, read the source and verified that it matches a claim made with this citation.
