	'''So why is the Internet Archive important?''' Well, hopefully the previous example of ''The X-Files'' mildly illustrates the importance of the service. From someone who's researching the history of the television series to an editor working on [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_X-Files ''The X-Files'' Wikipedia entry], having access to content that was originally published at the associated web domain — via the Wayback Machine — is particularly useful, not only for finding facts but also citing them. LIMSwiki editors also make good use of the Wayback Machine in their research of laboratory informatics vendors and open-source software projects: many companies and projects either alter their web content or disappear from the Internet completely, with only the Internet Archive to provide clues. Finally, cultural anthropologists, data preservationists, and historians aren't the only ones discovering cultural records on the site; people from all walks of life are tapping into both "born-digital" and digitized physical materials, some of which date back multiple centuries. From a 1929 recording of Louis Armstrong & His Orchestra's "[https://archive.org/details/Misbehavin Ain't Misbehavin']" to an [https://archive.org/details/The_New_World_of_English_Words_Or_A_General_Dictionary English dictionary] published in 1720, the Internet Archive gives people from all walks of life a chance to revisit a cultural past old and recent.

	As you have learned, the Internet Archive is quite serious about its efforts to bring the world digitally preserved physical and "digital-born" content.		As you have learned, the Internet Archive is quite serious about its efforts to bring the world digitally preserved physical and "digital-born" content. Texts in particular are useful to researchers, and the collection of over seven million texts found at the Archive make for a wonderful trove of research material. But how do we cite that material?

			'''On Wikipedia, this wiki, or other wikis with citation tools'''

			On this and other wikis, citations are required. Citations are placed via citation templates. Here are a few unpopulated citation templates, for example:

			* <code><nowiki><ref name="">{{cite web \|url= \|format= \|title= \|work= \|author= \|publisher= \|date= \|accessdate=}}</ref></nowiki></code>

			* <code><nowiki><ref name="">{{cite book \|url= \|chapter= \|title= \|author= \|pages= \|publisher= \|year= \|edition= \|volume= \|isbn= \|accessdate=}}</ref></nowiki></code>

			* <code><nowiki><ref name="">{{cite journal \|url= \|format= \|journal= \|chapter= \|title= \|author= \|year= \|volume= \|issue= \|pages= \|pmid= \|doi= \|accessdate=}}</ref></nowiki></code>

			* <code><nowiki><ref name="">{{cite news \|url= \|format= \|title= \|author= \|agency= \|publisher= \|newspaper= \|pages= \|location= \|date= \|accessdate=}}</ref></nowiki></code>

			This guide isn't dedicated to showing you how to create citations; consult the [[Help:MediaWiki basics/Advanced training\|advanced training section]] of the MediaWiki training guide to learn more. That said, citing a digitally archived book is straightforward. Using the <nowiki>{{cite book}}</nowiki> template, you'll be required to make a few modifications. Let's use that 1720 dictionary as an example, focusing on the definition of "algorithm":

			<code><nowiki><ref name="Dict1720">{{cite book \|url=https://archive.org/details/The_New_World_of_English_Words_Or_A_General_Dictionary \|chapter=Algorithm \|title=The New World of Words: Or, Universal English Dictionary \|author=Phillips, Edward \|publisher=Internet Archive \|others=Taylor, I. \|date=1720 \|edition=7th \|pages= \|accessdate=25 November 2014}}</ref></nowiki></code>

			In this case, the default <nowiki>{{cite book}}</nowiki> template doesn't include room for the document location or the name of the archive. In this example, I've put the publisher I. Taylor in the "others" (other contributors) field and put the archive name in the publisher field so it would appear in a more realistic spot.

			2. Making an archived book citation in a wiki
			You've found the story "The Spirit of the Willow Tree" in a book called ''Ancient Tales and Folklore in Japan''. You need to cite this story, located in chapter two, pages 12–18. The source is found here: https://archive.org/details/ancienttalesandf00gordrich

			Create a full wiki citation for this archived book using the guidance above.

			'''In a research paper'''

			'''MLA''':


			'''APA''':

	'''On Wikipedia, this wiki, or other wikis with citation tools'''		'''On Wikipedia, this wiki, or other wikis with citation tools'''
			Using the information from citing files on a wiki, citing an archived webpage is also rather straightforward. Using the <nowiki>{{cite web}}</nowiki> template, you'll be required to add a few additional parameters: "archiveurl" and "archivedate". Let's use the November 25, 2005 version of the Keane website as an example:
	~~On this and other wikis~~, ~~citations are required~~. ~~Citations are placed via citation templates. Here are a few unpopulated citation templates, for example:~~

	* <code><nowiki~~><ref name=""~~>{{cite web ~~\|url= \|format= \|title= \|work= \|author= \|publisher= \|date= \|accessdate=}}</ref></nowiki></code>~~

	* <code><nowiki><ref name="">{{cite book \|url= \|chapter= \|title= \|author= \|pages= \|publisher= \|year= \|edition= \|volume= \|isbn= \|accessdate=}}</ref></nowiki></code>

	* <code><nowiki><ref name="">{{cite journal \|url= \|format= \|journal= \|chapter= \|title= \|author= \|year= \|volume= \|issue= \|pages= \|pmid= \|doi= \|accessdate=}}</ref></nowiki></code>

	* <code><nowiki><ref name="">{{cite news \|url= \|format= \|title= \|author= \|agency= \|publisher= \|newspaper= \|pages= \|location= \|date= \|accessdate=}}~~</ref>~~</nowiki>~~</code>~~

Let's use the November 25, 2005 version of the Keane website as an example:

	<code><nowiki><ref name="KeaneArch05">{{cite web \|url=http://www.keane.com/ \|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20051125010336/http://www.keane.com/ \|title=Welcome to Keane \|work=Keane.com \|author= \|publisher=Keane International \|date= \|archivedate=25 November 2005 \|accessdate=25 November 2014}}</ref></nowiki></code>		<code><nowiki><ref name="KeaneArch05">{{cite web \|url=http://www.keane.com/ \|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20051125010336/http://www.keane.com/ \|title=Welcome to Keane \|work=Keane.com \|author= \|publisher=Keane International \|date= \|archivedate=25 November 2005 \|accessdate=25 November 2014}}</ref></nowiki></code>
