**'''name-style''': Can be used to define a custom text style for the {{para|name}} parameter or the default text.
*'''site''': Name of the parent site. Can be wikilinked. {{para|site|<var><nowiki>[[example.com|Example website]]</nowiki></var>}} produces: {{External link |url=http://www.example.com/ |site=[[example.com|Example website]]}}
**'''site-style''': Can be used to define a custom text style for the {{para|site}} parameter.
*'''official''': Define if the link is the ''official'' website for the topic. {{para|official|<var>y</var>}} produces: {{External link |url=http://www.example.com/ |official=y}}
*'''language''': The {{para|language}} parameter accepts an ISO 639 language code. {{para|language|<var>eo</var>}} produces: {{External link |url=http://www.example.com/ |language=eo}} English is the default language, and does not need to be noted using this template, unless there is a reason the reader would assume the link to be in a foreign language (e.g. a foreign title).

*'''flash''': Define if the link requires [[Adobe Flash]]. {{para|flash|<var>y</var>}} produces: {{External link |url=http://www.example.com/ |flash=y}}
*'''plugin''': Define if the link requires a browser [[Plug-in (computing)|plugin]]. {{para|plugin|<var>y</var>}} produces: {{External link |url=http://www.example.com/ |plugin=y}}
*'''requires''': Can be used to describe other website requirements not covered by one of the above parameters. Can be wikilinked. {{para|requires|<var>requires a <nowiki>[[web browser]]</nowiki></var>}} produces: {{External link |url=http://www.example.com/ |requires=requires a [[web browser]]}}
*'''requires-style''': Can be used to override the text style used by the {{para|official}}, {{para|language}}, {{para|registration}}, {{para|subscription}}, {{para|flash}}, {{para|plugin}}, and {{para|requires}} parameters.

*'''text''': Text used between the {{para|name}} and {{para|site}} parameters. Defaults to: {{para|text|<var>&#32;at</var>}}
**'''text-style''': Can be used to define a custom text style for the {{para|text}} parameter or the default text used between {{para|name}} and {{para|site}}.
*'''notext''': Can be used to omit the text between {{para|name}} and {{para|site}} parameters. Placing any value after {{para|notext}} (e.g. {{para|notext|<var>y</var>}}) will omit the text. <code><nowiki>{{External link |url=http://www.example.com/ |name=''Example link'' |site=&#32;from [[example.com|Example website]] |notext=y}}</nowiki></code> produces: {{External link |url=http://www.example.com/ |name=''Example link'' |site= from [[example.com|Example website]] |notext=y}}
