Template:ReliefWeb-link
Provides a convenient and standardized link to reports of ReliefWeb, suitable for an article's "External links" section. Not for use in citing material from the ReliefWeb website.
{{ ReliefWeb-link | <report-url*> }}
Requires a url such as https://reliefweb.int/disaster/xxxx, where the "xxxx" portion is for the specific report being linked to. Alternately, if just the report portion is suppled – the "xxxx" part — the rest will be prefixed.
Example:
{{ReliefWeb-link|eq-2018-000020-png}}→ ReliefWeb's main page for this event.
ReliefWeb
[edit]ReliefWeb is the world's largest humanitarian information portal, providing information to aid the effective delivery of emergency assistance in various forms, including situation reports, assessments, maps, and infographics. While much of this may be of interest to our readers, and therefore warrants a link, it should be kept in mind that the ReliefWeb main page is generally not authoritative for the information it provides, having obtained it from other sources, although it does provide links to these other sources, which should be used instead. In particular: while ReliefWeb can be considered authoritative for the local time (and timezone) of when an earthquake or other event happened, it is not authoritative for the estimated magnitude or precise location of an earthquake. For such data please go the authoritative source: the USGS-ANSS Latest Earthquakes page. Note that all initial reports of deaths and damage are preliminary and ephemeral, and should always be replaced by the numbers from official or authoritative sources.
