| 40px | This is a documentation subpage for Template:Bibleverse. It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
| File:OOjs UI icon information-progressive.svg | This template is being used for the discussion at Wikipedia:Citing sources/Bible to show different proposed solutions for the issue of properly citing the Bible. |
Usage
Code format:
- (
{{Bibleverse|BOOK|c:v–c:v|SOURCE (optional)}})
- Note parentheses: (See WP:EL). Inline external links (this template links offsite) must be separated from the article text by parentheses. (Parentheses are deliberately not included in this template to allow for flexible usage.)
- Example
{{Bibleverse|Genesis|1:1|KJV}}yields: Genesis 1:1
In text, with parentheses, this looks like this (Genesis 1:1).
- Detail
This template is used to provide sources for Bible verse references. See the talk page for more usages, examples and source codes.
- You can use shorthand for the names, such as Sam or Deut.
- Verse references may be simplified (for example, no range or entire chapter).
