Reference formatting and external links in article body text

In short, you need to learn how to use proper reference formatting. Directly linking any external site in the body text of an article goes against our guidelines on external links and is depreciated as a reference format as it doesn't allow for proper inclusion of authors, publishing dates and access dates, plus is difficult to repair if the link breaks. See WP:REF for more information. oknazevad (talk) 22:27, 24 November 2012 (UTC)
