Category:CS1 errors: requires URL

It is used to build and maintain lists of pages—primarily for the sake of the lists themselves. They are not part of the knowledge base 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 {{cite web}} CS1 citations where |url= is blank or omitted.

Help desk

Missing or empty |url=

To resolve this error, provide a value for |url= or use a more appropriate template such as {{cite book}}, {{cite journal}} or other Citation Style 1 or Citation Style 2 template.
