Optional parameters

[edit]
  • eurlexscheme: Can optionally be tried in combination with eurlextag if the template does not generate a working link. The only supported value as of April 2014 is eurlexscheme=uriserv for url's starting with http://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=uriserv:.
