This record is a draft: it has not been reviewed yet and may be incomplete or wrong. Do not rely on it for compliance decisions. Help improve it (see CONTRIBUTING.md).

Address of an article in a language edition of Wikipedia, such as https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CERN. The host is the language code followed by wikipedia.org, with m. for the mobile site. The path is usually /wiki/ and the article title; some editions also use a script or language variant such as /zh-hans/ or /sr-el/, and old links use ?title=. Registries such as ROR link organizations to their articles this way. Other Wikimedia sites (Commons, Wikivoyage, Wikidata) are not Wikipedia.
