ഫലകം:Cite Americana/doc

Purpose

This template facilitates the citation of articles from editions of Encyclopedia Americana that are in the public domain using {{cite encyclopedia}}. The template can also be used to cite articles from editions that are not in the public domain. In these cases, the noicon parameter should be used to suppress the icon.

Usage

{{Cite Americana|wstitle=''name of the Americana article here''}}

or with a specification of additional options:

{{Cite Americana

|noicon=1 — suppress the leading icon
|inline=1 — changes the prescript and should be used when this template is used as an inline citation
|short=1  — suppresses some of the fields such as editor's name
|ref=harv — can be overridden (if you need to ask you do not need to change it)
|wstitle=Americana article — if the article is available on Wikisource 
|display=alternative name — displayed inplace of the wstitle name
|title=Americana article — if the article is not available on Wikisource
|url=  — will not be set unless the parameter title= is set

If not set, set in the template Cite Americana to default values
|encyclopedia= — "Encyclopedia Americana"
|editor-first= — defaults to "George Edwin"
|editor-last=  — defaults to "Rines"
|{encyclopedia= 
|year — defaults to 1920

If set pass in other standard parameters:
|first=
|first1=
|first2=
|last=
|last1=
|last2=
|author=
|author1=
|author2=
|authors=
|authorlink=
|coauthors=
|volume=
|page=
|pages=
|separator=
|postscript=

}}

Some parameters, unless set to other values, are pre-set:

• editor-first defaults to "George Edwin"
• editor-last defaults to "Rines"
• year defaults to "1920"

Examples

Simple

{{Cite Americana|wstitle=Cogniet, Leon}}

displays as:

Rines, George Edwin, ed. (1920). "Cogniet, Leon" . എൻ‌സൈക്ലോപീഡിയ അമേരിക്കാന.

With comment

{{Cite Americana|wstitle=Cogniet, Leon}} A French history and portrait painter with many famous students.

displays as:

Rines, George Edwin, ed. (1920). "Cogniet, Leon" . എൻ‌സൈക്ലോപീഡിയ അമേരിക്കാന. A French history and portrait painter with many famous students.

Using author

{{Cite Americana|author=[[Wilbur L. Cross]] |wstitle=David Copperfield}}

displays as:

Wilbur L. Cross (1920). "David Copperfield" . In Rines, George Edwin (ed.). എൻ‌സൈക്ലോപീഡിയ അമേരിക്കാന.

Using volume, pages, page

These work as with other {{cite}} templates:

{{Cite Americana |title=Pulte, Joseph Hippolyt |volume=22 |page=799 }}

displays as:

 Rines, George Edwin, ed. (1920). "Pulte, Joseph Hippolyt". എൻ‌സൈക്ലോപീഡിയ അമേരിക്കാന. Vol. 22. p. 799.

Using display

The mechanics of Wikisource will sometimes require that a link have disambiguation information which is not part of the original title. The display parameter allows this information to be hidden for the purpose of the citation. For example:

{{Cite Americana|wstitle=Monroe (Louisiana) |display=Monroe, La.}}

displays as:

Rines, George Edwin, ed. (1920). "Monroe, La." . എൻ‌സൈക്ലോപീഡിയ അമേരിക്കാന.

Using noicon

{{Cite Americana|wstitle=Cogniet, Leon|noicon=x}}

displays as:

Rines, George Edwin, ed. (1920). "Cogniet, Leon". എൻ‌സൈക്ലോപീഡിയ അമേരിക്കാന.

Using vb

If text is incorporated verbatim into an article, the vb parameter can be used to tack on a notice appropriate to the policy in Wikipedia:Plagiarism.

{{Cite Americana|wstitle=Schlatter, Michael |vb=x}}

displays as:

This article incorporates text from a publication now in the public domain: Rines, George Edwin, ed. (1920). "Schlatter, Michael" . എൻ‌സൈക്ലോപീഡിയ അമേരിക്കാന.

This option is depreciated. Instead use {{Americana}} which does the same thing without the need for a vb=x parameter.

Using title (no Wikisource link)

{{Cite Americana |title=Sterne, Simon}}

displays as:

 Rines, George Edwin, ed. (1920). "Sterne, Simon". എൻ‌സൈക്ലോപീഡിയ അമേരിക്കാന.

When title is being used, url can be used to specify an external link. For example:

{{Cite Americana
 |title=Sterne, Simon
 |url=http://books.google.com/books?id=cr9PAAAAMAAJ&pg=PA632
}} At [[Google Books]].

displays as:

 Rines, George Edwin, ed. (1920). "Sterne, Simon". എൻ‌സൈക്ലോപീഡിയ അമേരിക്കാന. At Google Books.

Using short

If a shorter citation is desired, excluding the editor of the 1920 edition, the short option can be used. For example:

{{Cite Americana|wstitle=Schlatter, Michael|short=x}}

displays as:

"Schlatter, Michael" . എൻ‌സൈക്ലോപീഡിയ അമേരിക്കാന. 1920.

If another edition besides 1920 is being used, the editor name can be customized using editor-first and editor-last. If used, these two items will be displayed whether or not the short option is specified.
