Template:Cite WoRMS/doc

From Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This template is used to generate references or external links to the World Register of Marine Species (WoRMS). It uses {{cite web}} to produce the output, and passes the publisher to that template automatically. It also contains a table of database names, to save the user from entering the database's title and editor(s). Typical usage would be:

{{cite WoRMS |author= |year= |title= |id= |accessdate=}}

For an entry that is part of one of the named databases in WoRMS, the additional db= parameter is used:

{{cite WoRMS |author= |year= |title= |id= |accessdate= |db=}}

Where the entry is not in one of the names databases, db= can be omitted. The title= field should contain Wiki-formatting for italics, as appropriate. To use the template to generate an entry in the external links section of an article, omit the accessdate= field. If the author= field is missing or empty, a default author of "WoRMS" will appear.

Example output
  • {{cite WoRMS |author=P. Schuchert |year=2010 |title=''Zyzzyzus'' Stechow, 1921d |db=Hydrozoa |id=267956 |accessdate=November 24, 2011}}

produces:

  • P. Schuchert (2010). Schuchert P (ed.). "Zyzzyzus Stechow, 1921d". World Hydrozoa database. World Register of Marine Species. Retrieved November 24, 2011.
