I maintain a web extension called QWiki-Cite, that can instantly generate a {{cite web}} template for the web page you're currently on.
You can install QWiki-Cite on Firefox. Feedback and bug reports are welcome on GitHub.
This extension is particularly useful if you're into cleaning up a page's citations — for example, if you're weird like me and spend time trawling through pages with bare URL references to try to fight link rot.
The project is open source and licensed under the GNU General Public License. Contributions are very welcome, please submit a pull request on GitHub.
