Category:Pages with archiveurl citation errors

This is a tracking category It is used to build and maintain lists of pages—primarily for the sake of the lists themselves. They are not part of the encyclopedia's categorization scheme. More information: This category is hidden on its member pages—unless the corresponding user preference 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 sub-categories into a larger, more efficient list (discriminated by classifications).

Administrators: Please do not delete this category even if it is empty! This category may be empty occasionally or even most of the time.

This is a tracking category for CS1 citations that have errors due to the incorrect use of |archiveurl=, |archivedate=, and/or |deadurl=. In general, the CS1 citations emit error messages that identify the type of error. {{Cite web}} does not emit error messages for all error conditions though malformed {{cite web}} templates are included in Category:Pages with archiveurl citation errors.
