Detailed notes ସମ୍ପାଦନା

This template is wrapper around {{Cite EB1911}} which in turn is a wrapper around {{Cite encyclopedia}}. In its default mode it attributes text to an article from Eleventh Edition of the Encyclopædia Britannica. If attribution is not required (because the article is used as an information source, but not directly copied, or closely paraphrased) then use {{Cite EB1911}} instead of this template.

This template automatically sets some of the parameters passed into {{cite encyclopedia}} for example "publisher = Cambridge University Press". Over and above the standard parameter passed into {{cite encyclopedia}} there are some additional parameters and those are listed below in a separate table from the table of parameters passed into {{cite encyclopedia}}.

Minimum is:{{EB1911|title=EB article name}} or {{EB1911|wstitle=EB article name}}[nb ୧][nb ୨]

Full set is:{{EB1911|wstitle=|article=|no-prescript=|no-icon|inline=|footnote=|author=|last=|first=|authorlink=|coauthors=|title=|url=|accessdate=|volume=|page|pages}}

Additional parameters
Parameter Note
article=EB name If set is assigned to title. If title is set article is ignored.
author=author name Assigned to last ignored if last is set.
wstitle=name of the article on wikisource If set, set link to EB article on wikisource, and unsets title and url if they are also set.
footnote=1 or inline=1 Changes the default prescript from "This article" to "One or more of the preceding sentences". Useful for inline citations (see inline examples in the previous section).
no-icon=1 Suppresses the lead icon (useful with {{Wikisource-inline}}).
no-prescript=1 Suppresses the prescript.

pages= pages= Set to the value of pages= or not set
quote= Not set
separator= separator= Set to the value of separator= or set to default (space must be encoded as   ). — The parameters separator and postscript and are provided because {{cite encyclopedia}} (the wrapper for this template) sets separator="." and postscript="." while the other standard template {{citation}} sets separator="," and postscript=none. So the parameters separator and postscript can be set to comma and none to allow this template to emulate the look of {{citation}} if that is considered to be desirable.
postscript= postscript= Set to the value of postscript= or set to default (for no terminating punctuation, specify postscript=none).
ref= harv automatically set within the template, but it can be overwritten with a user supplied value. It means that {{sfn}} and {{harvnb}} can be used to link to this template, for example, {{sfn|Chisholm|1911}}. (more details)

Hidden categories ସମ୍ପାଦନା

This template adds the hidden category "Wikipedia articles incorporating text from the 1911 Encyclopædia Britannica" to the articles it is used in.

The template calls {{Cite EB1911}} and depending on the parameters used it also adds the following hidden categories:

See also ସମ୍ପାଦନା

  • Wikipedia:1911 Encyclopaedia Britannica—for information on usage of the material.
  • {{Sect1911}} Attribute a section to EB 1911
  • {{Cite EB1911}} Cite an EB 1911 article.
  • {{EB1911 poster}} display a EB 1911 Wikisource article in a top box on the right
  • {{Update-EB}} for articles with information from the 1911 Encyclopaedia that require updates (for example information in geographical articles over emphasise railway links and ignores more recent forms of transport).

Notes ସମ୍ପାଦନା

  1. It will also work with no parameters, but that set a category flagging that no article name has been given, as it is not much use to the reader to inform them that a Wikipeda article contains some text copied from somewhere in the 29-volumes of the Eleventh Edition of the Encyclopædia Britannica!
  2. For backward compatibility, wikisource can be used instead of wstitle but it is depreciated and may be removed in the future.
