Resolves a European Legislation Identifier (ELI) to the permalink in the EUR-Lex database by prepending http://data.europa.eu/eli/

This template uses {{Catalog lookup link}} as its base. It supports a list of up to 9 ELI codes. It may be used in the id= parameter of Citation Style 1/{{Citation}}. The parameter leadout= can be used for to add a conjunction to the final number in the list. For example:

{{ELI|dir/2000/60/oj|reg/2013/216/oj|dec/2009/496|leadout=and}} produces:

ELI dir/2000/60/oj, reg/2013/216/oj and dec/2009/496

TO DO:

  • Get proper ELI format: is /eli/ prefix required? (High priority)
  • International legal citation template similar to {{Cite court}} and {{Citation}} (Medium priority).
  • Add support for language and format choice (Low priority).

See also: EUR-Lex permalink documentation, and more info on EU ELIs. All direct quotations below are taken from the former document.

The basic URI template is the following: http://data.europa.eu/eli/{typedoc}/{year}/{naturalnumber}/oj

Types of documents {typedoc}:

  • Directives: dir or dir_impl or dir_del
  • Regulations: reg or reg_impl or reg_del
  • Decisions: typedoc either dec or dec_impl or dec_del

Examples:

Please note that, although the link contains the data.europa.eu domain, the returned page will be a EUR-Lex document or search result.

At EU level, ELIs are assigned to a wide range of legislation published in the L series (regulations, directives, decisions) of the Official Journal of the European Union and to consolidated acts.
