Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

This template is used on many pages and changes may be widely noticed. Test changes in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them.

Usage

This template should be placed in the References section of an article if the article incorporates text from a source that is not under copyright and there is no source specific template listed in Category:Attribution templates.

{{Source-attribution|source and other details|no-icon=y |pl=y |inline=y}}

The four parameters are:

1 (unnamed) = source name and other identifying details — The name of the source, along with any other details which are needed to identify the work (the argument (the text) can also be another template such as {{cite book}})
no-icon=y — remove the leading icon (alternative noicon and the argument can be any string such as yes or 1 etc)
pl=y — changes the wording from "from a publication" to "from publications" (alternative plural and the argument can be any string such as yes or 1 etc).
inline=y — change the wording of the prescript from "This article..." to "One or more of the preceding sentences..." (alternative sentence and the argument can be any string such as yes or 1 etc). It is intended for use in inline citations.

The template with a citation as the unnamed parameter, e.g. <ref>{{Source-attribution|{{cite book |title= Handbook to the cathedrals of England |first=Richard |last=John |date=1869}} }}</ref>, shows as ^[3]
Using |pl=y, as in <ref>{{Source-attribution|pl=y|John, Richard (1869). ''Handbook to the cathedrals of England''; and {{cite book|last=Offa |first=Anne |year=1066|title=An Old Book}}}}</ref>, shows as ^[4]
Using |inline=y, as in <ref>{{Source-attribution|inline=y|''Handbook to the cathedrals of England'', by Richard John (1869)}}</ref>, shows as ^[5]
Using all four parameters simultaneously <ref>{{Source-attribution|''sources and other details''|no-icon=y |pl=y |inline=y}}</ref>^[6]
