Template:WsPSM2/doc

Purpose

This template enables reference links to the Wikisource Popular Science Monthly project for Wikipedia articles.

Usage

<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline> "title of article page" in Popular Science Monthly Volume volume number, month & year of publication</syntaxhighlight>

Example

<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline>*  "Sketch of Prof. Gray" in Popular Science Monthly Volume 1, August 1872</syntaxhighlight>

displays as:

•  "Sketch of Prof. Gray" in Popular Science Monthly Volume 1, August 1872

Parameters

The order of the parameters by default is

1. title of article page = {{{title}}}
2. volume number = {{{vol}}}
3. month/year of publication = {{{date}}}

Though if you use all parameter names, order can be varied. All these parameters are mandatory for a functional template link to be generated.

• Two optional parameters can be used to override visible text and position on page of work
  • {{{anchor}}} to change the link position on referred page to a predefined anchor
  • {{{author}}} to include the name of the author of the article
  • {{{override_title}}} to change the descriptive text visible for the link.

Note: The parameter {{{volumename}}} is for the use of automatic link creation, using the full "Volume #" from the article page name instead of simply "#" when manually entered.

Example

<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">  "Obituary: Alfred Burdon Ellis" in Popular Science Monthly Volume 45, July 1894 </syntaxhighlight>

produces

 "Obituary: Alfred Burdon Ellis" in Popular Science Monthly Volume 45, July 1894
