Template:Cite NSRW

Template documentation

Purpose

This template enables the citation of articles from The New Student's Reference Work in the manner of {{cite encyclopaedia}}. The article title can have a Wikisource link, an arbitrary external link, or no link.

Usage

{{Cite NSRW|article title}}

or with a specification of the optional display, author, noicon, vb or volume parameters:

{{Cite NSRW|article title|display=author=...|noicon=x|vb=x|volume=...}}

or with a specification of a title not linked to Wikisource:

{{Cite NSRW|title=non-Wikisource article title|author=...|noicon=x|vb=x|volume=...|url=...|accessdate=...}}

Examples

Typical

{{Cite NSRW|Schurz, Carl}}

displays as:

 "Schurz, Carl". The New Student's Reference Work. Chicago: F. E. Compton and Co. 1914. 

Simplest

If the NSRW article name is the same as the Wikipedia article name, the template argument can be omitted. For example, in the Auxanometer article

{{Cite NSRW}}

displays as:

 "Auxanometer". The New Student's Reference Work. Chicago: F. E. Compton and Co. 1914. 

With comment

{{Cite NSRW|Schurz, Carl}} The most prominent foreign-born citizen of the 19th-century United States.

displays as:

 "Schurz, Carl". The New Student's Reference Work. Chicago: F. E. Compton and Co. 1914.  The most prominent foreign-born citizen of the 19th-century United States.

display option

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 NSRW|Madeira (river)|display=Madeira, a river of South America}}

displays as:

 "Madeira, a river of South America". The New Student's Reference Work. Chicago: F. E. Compton and Co. 1914. 

title option (no Wikisource link)

{{Cite NSRW|title=Tower, Charlemagne}}

displays as:

 "Tower, Charlemagne". The New Student's Reference Work. Chicago: F. E. Compton and Co. 1914. 

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

{{Cite NSRW
 |title=Tower, Charlemagne
 |volume=4
 |url=http://chestofbooks.com/.../pp0239.html
 |accessdate=2009-07-31
}} At [http://chestofbooks.com chestofbooks.com].

displays as:

 "Tower, Charlemagne". The New Student's Reference Work. 4. Chicago: F. E. Compton and Co. 1914. http://chestofbooks.com/reference/The-New-Student-s-Reference-Work-Vol4/pp0239.html. Retrieved 2009-07-31.  At chestofbooks.com.

noicon option

{{Cite NSRW|Schurz, Carl|noicon=x}}

vb option
