Template:R

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

Intent

Provides a compact shorthand for <ref name="RefName" /> citation tags, simplifying syntax so cutting code clutter.

For example:

Using <ref>	For example, fact<ref name=Bal/><ref name=Bam/><ref name=Bar/> and fact.<ref name=Bas/><ref name=Bay/><ref name=Baz/> Displays as: For example, fact and fact.
Instead using {{r}}	For example, fact{{r|Bal|Bam|Bar}} and fact.{{r|Bas|Bay|Baz}} Displays as: For example, fact and fact.

{{r}} and <ref> can coexist on the same page, and like <ref>, {{r}} can be used with or without list-defined references. In addition, a |page= or |p= parameter adds the functionality of {{rp}}:

Using {{r}} with |p= parameter	For example, fact.{{r|RefName|p=22}} Displays as: For example, fact.

Usage

Usage	Display	Notes
{{r|RefName}}	Text.	Equivalent to <ref name="RefName" />.
{{r|RefName|p=100}} {{r|RefName|pp=100}} {{r|RefName|page=100}} {{r|RefName|pages=100}}	Text.	Adds a page number (or other location identifier) within the source. The |p=, |pp=, |page=, and |pages= parameters are equivalent. If the article cites only one location in a given source, reduce clutter by coding simply {{r|RefName}} and integrating the location into the main RefName citation.
{{r|RefName|p=10–14}} {{r|RefName|pp=3, 6}} {{r|RefName|page=§C}} {{r|RefName|pages=Dust jacket}} {{r|RefName|pages=para. 7}}	Text. Text. Text. Text. Text.
{{r|RefName|Bam|Bar}}	Text.	Equivalent to {{r|RefName}}{{r|Bam}}{{r|Bar}} or Template:Nobr Up to nine references may be "bundled" this way.
Template:Nobr {{r|1=RefName|p1=100|2=Bam|p2=10–14|3=Bar|4=Bas|p4=§C}}	Template:Nobr	Equivalent to {{r|RefName|p=100}}{{r|Bam|p=10–14}}{{r|Bar}}{{r|Bas|p=§C}}. In the example, not all references have pages; make sure that e.g. |1= matches |p1=
{{r|group=Notes|NtName}} {{r|grp=Notes|NtName|NtCam}} {{r|g=Notes|NtName|p=13}}	Text. Text. Text.	The |group=, |grp=, and |g= parameters are equivalent and echo Template:Nobr If present, the parameter applies to all references in the template.
{{r|RefName|p=100|q=quote from the text}} {{r|RefName|p=100|quote=quote from the text}}	Text.	Makes sense only if |p= (or one of its synonyms) is present. |quote= (or |q=) underlines the superscript page number/​location identifier, signaling availability of a quote from the source, which pops up when the mouse is hovered over the underlined bit. Not compatible with raw apostrophe ('); use &apos; instead. Raw double quote (") works. Curved quotes are disfavored by MOS:STRAIGHT.
{{r|1=RefName|2=Bam|3=Bar|4=Bas|p1=100|p2=10–14|p4=§C|q1=Quote from 100|q4=Quote from §C}}	Text.	In the example, not all references have quotes; make sure that e.g. |1= and |p1= and |q1= all match.

The ref names may be defined within a {{reflist}} (as illustrated below) or (in the more usual way) scattered throughout the article text using e.g. Template:Nobr or Template:Nobr.

===References===
{{reflist|refs=
<ref name=RefName>Reference text.</ref>
<ref name=Bam>Bam reference text.</ref>
<ref name=Bar>Bar reference text.</ref>
<ref name=Bas>Bas reference text.</ref>
<ref name=Bay>Bay reference text.</ref>
<ref name=Baz>Baz reference text.</ref>
}}

===Notes===
{{reflist|group=Notes|refs=
<ref name=NtName>Note text.</ref>
<ref name=NtCam>Cam note text.</ref>
}}
