Template:Gutenberg Australia/doc

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This template is for linking books or authors at Project Gutenberg Australia (PGAU).

Usage

[edit]
For example for Charles Dickens the HTML looks like this:
<td><a name="dickensc" id="dickensc"></a><b>Charles DICKENS (1812-1870)</b>
The ID is dickensc
  • Step 2A: If linking to a book..
    • Create the template like this:
{{Gutenberg Australia |id=plusfifty-a-m.html#dickensc |name=Tale of Two Cities}}
The id is now composed of the "plusfifty-a-m.html" + "#" + "dickensc"
The name is the title of the book
  • Step 2B: If linking an author..
    • Create the template like this:
{{Gutenberg Australia |id=plusfifty-a-m.html#dickensc |name=Charles Dickens |author=yes}}
The id is the same as when linking to a book (above), but also include the argument author=yes
The name is the author's name

Arguments

[edit]
  • id: the id at PGAU website. See "Usage" above for how to determine.
  • name: The name of the author, or the title of the book. Can be anything doesn't have to match the Wikipedia page or the PGAU website.
  • author: Set to "yes" ie. author=yes if name is an author's name. Don't use if name = book title.
  • coda: A text string that follows the template.
For example this {{Gutenberg Australia |id=plusfifty-a-m.html#dickensc |name=Tale of Two Cities |coda=(Third American edition)}} will produce:
Tale of Two Cities at Project Gutenberg Australia (Third American edition)


Notes

[edit]
  • The PGAU website has no page for individual book titles, the only way to link is to a sub-section of a longer page.
