BibTeX entry

 @misc{ wiki:xxx,
   author = "WikiWaves",
   title = "Background --- WikiWaves{,} ",
   year = "2009",
   url = "https://www.wikiwaves.org/index.php?title=Background&oldid=9894",
   note = "[Online; accessed 24-January-2026]"
 }

When using the LaTeX package url (\usepackage{url} somewhere in the preamble) which tends to give much more nicely formatted web addresses, the following may be preferred:

 @misc{ wiki:xxx,
   author = "WikiWaves",
   title = "Background --- WikiWaves{,} ",
   year = "2009",
   url = "\url{https://www.wikiwaves.org/index.php?title=Background&oldid=9894}",
   note = "[Online; accessed 24-January-2026]"
 }
