IMPORTANT NOTE: Most educators and professionals do not consider it appropriate to use tertiary sources such as encyclopedias as a sole source for any information—citing an encyclopedia as an important reference in footnotes or bibliographies may result in censure or a failing grade. FAMEPedia articles should be used for background information, as a reference for correct terminology and search terms, and as a starting point for further research.

As with any community-built reference, there is a possibility for error in FAMEPedia's content—please check your facts against multiple sources and read our disclaimers for more information.

When using the LaTeX package url (\usepackage{url} somewhere in the preamble), which tends to give much more nicely formatted web addresses, the following may be preferred: 

  @misc{ enwiki:11321,
    author = "{FAMEPedia contributors}",
    title = "English language --- {FAMEPedia}{,} The free encyclopedia",
    year = "2021",
    howpublished = "\url{https://en.famepedia.org/w/index.php?title=English_language&oldid=11321}",
    note = "[Online; accessed 27-June-2022]"
  }
