How to cite a sequence from The On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences (OEIS)? In my paper I want to provide a reference for a sequence (in this case - A001970) from The On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences (OEIS).
However, I couldn't find an official bib entry for it (there is an unofficial OEIS2BibTeX). Even the respective FAQ/Wiki entry is a bit vague on the issue, providing only a suggestion:

A text reference might say:
The On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences, published electronically at http://oeis.org, 2010, Sequence A000108
or, if it is clear who "discovered" the sequence, something like
J. H. Conway, Sequence A007970 in The On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences (2010), published electronically at http://oeis.org.

Moreover, in most of papers I saw people add N. [J. A.] Sloane but drop the year, e.g.:

N. J. A. Sloane, The On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences, Sequence A000009.

So, is there a "good practice" for citing OEIS sequences?
 A: For those who, like me, just want to copy and paste BibTeX for OEIS which approximates the general suggested reference style, here you go:
@misc{oeis,
    Author = {{OEIS Foundation Inc.}},
    Note = {Published electronically at \url{http://oeis.org}},
    Title = {The {O}n-{L}ine {E}ncyclopedia of {I}nteger {S}equences},
    Year = YYYY}

Of course, fill in YYYY with the current year.
Usage:
\cite[A008277]{oeis}

A: To answer the question briefly: if you didn't find a guide or enough examples of a good
practice online, then it is underpromoted (which
includes the possibility that it doesn't exist).
People are still working on ways to cite online material, especially when referring to
evolving resources like MathOverflow.  If you can provide enough reference points in
the bibliography to ensure that anyone who checks will find that to which you refer,
then you have done your part of the job.  MathOverflow assists in this by providing
static unmodifiable data (question number, user number, timestamp of revision, etc.)
as well as a link that gives you the data in a format suitable for bibliographic reference,
but that is no guarantee that things won't change after some transition. 
If OEIS had made some suggestion for reference which you still find wanting, I offer
two:  For the short term (while you are still active), prepare an electronic file which
contains additional research notes for limited distribution.  This can include your
favorite online resource links or even gossip about which reference librarians to
ask, but one thing it can include is a jpeg which is a screen snapshot of the OEIS
page as it looked when you retrieved it.  That way, for any future researcher who 
can't verify that part of your work and asks something like "What choo talking about
Willis?", you can send them jpeg as supporting material.  Hopefully they will still have
a jpeg reader in that decade.
For the rest of posterity, also include links to other papers which use the sequence.
Future historians can then infer the existence of a great and powerful database,
something like a lost continent, which was gifted to mankind for the purpose of
furthering intellectual acheivements, and which may inspire them to reconstruct
it from whatever digital archives the insect rulers left to them.

A: The OEIS website http://oeis.org/wiki/Works_Citing_OEIS#Referencing_the_OEIS provides this info: 
If you have found the OEIS useful in your own work, and wish to reference it, the usual citation is
OEIS Foundation Inc. (2019), The On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences, http://oeis.org.

To reference a particular sequence, the usual citation is
OEIS Foundation Inc. (2019), The On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences, http://oeis.org/A123456.

A: Just for a reference, I did cite it as:

N. J. A. Sloane. The On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences, http://oeis.org. Sequence A001970.

A: My favourite (standard) format is
OEIS Foundation Inc. (2022). The Online Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences, A001970. Accessed: June 30 2022, Available online at: http://oeis.org/A001970.
Otherwise, in specific cases, I have cited the sequence author's name (e.g., BIBITEX,
@misc{A001292:2,
author       = "R. Muller",
title        = "Sequence {A}001292 in the {O}n-Line {E}ncyclopedia of {I}nteger {S}equences (n.d.)",
howpublished = "\url{https://oeis.org/A001292}",
NOTE="Accessed on May 18 2022"
}
)
