Usage

edit

This template generates a book citation as above, using the {{cite book}} template.

{{Durrant-SteamAfrica | page=xx}}
{{Durrant-SteamAfrica | pages=xx–yy}}
{{Durrant-SteamAfrica | ref=ID}}
Optional parameters
  • page – The relevant page number for a specific citation – the "p." prefix is automatically added
  • pages – The relevant page numbers for a specific citation – the "pp." prefix is automatically added

If both |page= and |pages= are specified, |page= is ignored.

  • ref – ID for anchor; if omitted, the special value |ref=harv is used, so that {{harvnb|Durrant|Lewis|Jorgensen|1981}}, {{sfn|Durrant|Lewis|Jorgensen|1981}}, etc. will link.

Apart from the default value |ref=harv, the three parameters are passed unchanged to {{cite book}} - see that template's documentation for further information.
