A shortcut to generating a basic citation using template:CCC, automatically generating a "{{refn|}}" wrapper and adding the current date.

This template must be "subst:", and is only compatible with the "basic parameters" from template:CCC; other parameters may be manually added once substituted, if necessary.

Basic parameters
  • {{{pp}}} - input paragraph number (or first unnamed parameter). Can also use first unnamed parameter {{{1}}} as paragraph number.
  • {{{end}}} - optional end of a range of paragraphs. Does not influence output page selection.
  • {{{date}}} or {{{accessdate}}} - specify the date the catechism website was accessed. Can also be set using the second unnamed parameter {{{2}}} (only if first unnamed {{{1}}} is used to set paragraph number). Optionally, use {{subst:date}} as the parameter value to fill in today's date. Manually input dates will be rendered in "dmy" unless the {{{format}}} parameter is used.
  • {{{note}}} - optional note added to end. Could be used quote portions of text.

Usage edit
