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

Usage

This template creates a {{cite web}} citation to the United States Coast Guard Historical information site for lighthouses.

Parameters

There is one mandatory unnamed parameter, a two letter postal abbreviation of the state, or one of:

  • PANAMA for Panama
  • CUBA for Cuba
  • PACIFIC for Pacific Rim
  • AWI for West Indies / Virgin Islands
  • PR for Puerto Rico

It must be in upper case.

In addition, on can state the date which appears on the bottom right of the page, using the |date= field, and/or the date the page was accessed, using the accessdate field.

Error checking is done, thus using {{cite uscghist|CO}} will result in an error since there are no lighthouses in Colorado:

"Historic Light Station Information and Photography: Error: invalid state or no state when using {{cite uscghist}}Template:Namespace detect showall". United States Coast Guard Historian's Office. Missing or empty |url= (help)

Examples:
