Template:Cite WS/doc
 | This is a documentation subpage for Template:Cite WS. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
 | This template should not be used in citation templates such as Citation Style 1 and Citation Style 2, because it includes markup that will pollute the COinS metadata they produce; see Wikipedia:COinS. |
| Template:Cite WS is deprecated. Please use {{citation|title-link=s:wikisource-title}} instead. Alternatively use one of the CS1 templates with |title-link=s:wikisource-title. |
Description
[change source]This template is used to link a reference (or "further reading") material to Wikisource within the citation templates; and can maintain consistency with Wikipedia citation guidelines. It also allows Wikipedia articles to keep priority over linking to Wikisource (i.e., if the work has an article in Wikipedia, link to the article in the title space, and to Wikisource in the chapter/page field, or just use the scan field to place next to wp link). Or, however you would like to use it.
Parameters
[change source]Title
[change source]Title should not be necessarily what appears as the title in the name space, which may include Roman numerals, parenthetical words and other organizational tools; it should simply be what you would like to have appear in the citation as the title.
|title=History of West Hoboken
Link
[change source]The link should direct to the main space work, or page if desired.
|link=History of West Hoboken N.J./Chapter 1#3
Scan
[change source]If it is desired to link to a scan as well, link to either the Page: space or the File: space.
