Template:Press/doc

This template adds pages to Category:Wikipedia pages referenced by the press. It should only be used if the Simple English version of the page was mentioned by a media organization.

Usage

Basic

This template takes the following input:

{{Press
 |subject     = <!-- type of Wikipedia page (defaults to "article" but can be set to any namespace: "template", "category", "help", etc.) -->
 |author      = 
 |title       = <!-- or |articlename= -->
 |date        = 
 |org         = <!-- media outlet/agency/organization -->
 |url         = 
 |lang        = <!-- default is English -->
 |quote       = 
 |archiveurl  = <!-- URL of an archived copy of the page, if the original URL becomes unavailable. -->
 |archivedate = <!-- do not wikilink -->
 |accessdate  = <!-- do not wikilink -->
}}

An optional unnamed parameter allows you to customize the name of the link to Wikipedia:Press coverage. For example, it may be more accurate to read "mentioned unfavorably", in case the original article becomes unavailable.

The |subject= parameter is optional and will display "this article has been mentioned...". Set |subject=template to display "this template has been mentioned...", and so on.

Use |collapsed=yes for a collapsed default display. To include additional sources, affix a number greater than 1 (i.e. 2, 3, etc.) to each parameter. Up to 30 sources can be added to the template.

Use |nocat=true to suppress categorization of the page. This is usually for demo purposes, such as on a template documentation page.
