Usage

[edit]

{{Cite OED|headword|entry ID}}

To retrieve the entry ID, click "Cite" on the entry page and copy the 10-digit number after https://doi.org/10.1093/OED/. If the ID is absent, the headword is linked to the search results. The first and second parameters have aliases |term= and |id=, respectively.

"A". Oxford English Dictionary (Online ed.). Oxford University Press. doi:10.1093/OED/7382069290. (Subscription or participating institution membership required.)

{{Cite OED|term=A|id=7382069290}}
{{Cite OED|term}}

Some entries, such as those that have been chosen as "the word of the day", are fully accessible to everyone. You may note this and suppress the indication of required subscription by setting |access=free.

{{Cite OED|ADA|6984906085|access=free}}

For backwards compatibility, if the given ID is nine digits or less, the link uses the URL scheme that was used before the July 2023 overhaul of the OED site; existing links continue to work and do not need updating.
