Unnamed parameters:

{{Rotten Tomatoes | ID }}

{{Rotten Tomatoes | ID | TITLE or NAME }}

Named parameters:

{{Rotten Tomatoes | id= ID }}

Instructions

Go to RottenTomatoes.com and search for a title or person. On the results page, click the appropriate link.
The page for a movie review should have a URL (shown in your browser's address bar) like this:
https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/<ID>

where m/<ID> is Rotten Tomatoes' ID for this page. For instance, the page for The Time Travelers (1964) is:
https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/1021517-time_travelers

Note however, that the ID for many movies will simply be their complete title in all-lowercase, without punctuation, and with underscores replacing spaces. For instance, the page for To Kill A Mockingbird (1962) is:
https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/to_kill_a_mockingbird
Add the following text to the "External links" section of your movie article:
* {{Rotten Tomatoes|m/<ID>|<TITLE>}}

replacing <ID> with the ID you found and <TITLE> with the title as you wish it to appear. For example:
* {{Rotten Tomatoes|m/incredibles|The Incredibles}}
will result in the following:
- The Incredibles at Rotten Tomatoes
See the examples below for links to Rotten Tomatoes web pages about TV series, franchises, celebrities, and critics.
