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

Format based on information from the article Case citation.

Usage

Copy a blank version to use. All parameter names must be lowercase. At this point, all fields are optional; however, this is subject to change as the template matures.

Horizontal list
{{cite court |litigants= |vol= |reporter= |opinion= |pinpoint= |court= |date= |url= |access-date= |quote=}}
Vertical list
{{cite court
|litigants=
|vol=
|reporter=
|opinion=
|pinpoint=
|court=
|date=
|url=
|access-date=
|quote=
}}

Examples

  • {{cite court |litigants=Parker v. D.C. |vol=478 |reporter=F.3d |opinion=370 |pinpoint=401 |court=D.C. Cir. |date=2007 |url=http://pacer.cadc.uscourts.gov/docs/common/opinions/200703/04-7041a.pdf |quote=As such, we hold it unconstitutional.}}
  • Parker v. D.C., 478 F.3d 370, 401 (D.C. Cir. 2007). “As such, we hold it unconstitutional.”

Description of fields

All fields are optional!

litigants 
The title of the case, such as "Miranda v. Arizona". If a Wikipedia article using this exact string exists, a link will automatically be created. Alternately, if an article exists but another name is desired for display, a wikilink may be specified; i.e., "[[Case article|This v. That]]". Note: This presently cannot be specified as title, which is inconsistent with other citation templates.
reporter 
The abbreviated term for whatever reporter is being referenced; i.e., "U.S." for the U.S. Supreme Court's "United States Reports". Important: "reporter" in this context means an official law publication, not a journalist. This presently cannot be specified as work, which is inconsistent with other citation templates. Do not wikilink.
vol 
Volume of the reporter. Only used for US case citations (and those given in the same format); otherwise, just include the information as part of reporter in the format given by the source. This presently cannot be specified as volume, which is inconsistent with other citation templates.
opinion 
The opinion number, often the number of the first page of the case. Only used for US case citations (and those given in the same format); otherwise, just include the information as part of reporter in the format given by the source.
pinpoint 
Identifies a specific part of a decision, typically by page or paragraph number. This presently cannot be specified as at, page, or pages, which is inconsistent with other citation templates.
court 
The name or (optionally) standard abbreviation for the court being cited (e.g. "3d Cir." or "M.D. Ala." or "Allahabad High Court‎, India"). If the abbreviated form would be a red link, use the long one (even if it is also a red link for now). See here for a list of courts in the United States. In order for court to appear, date must also be specified. Note: This parameter also should likely not be optional.
date 
The year or full date in which the court rendered its decision. Note: This parameter also should likely not be optional, or the court parameter will break.
url 
A Web address for the court document(s). For example, for a U.S. Supreme Court case, the URL to FindLaw is http://caselaw.lp.findlaw.com/scripts/getcase.pl?navby=CASE&court=US&vol={{{vol}}}&page={{{page}}}. It may be permissible to use the URL of a Web page that provides summary information about the case, if the case documents are not available; however, an article about the case should be cited with {{Cite web}} or {{Cite news}}. This template is for citing a legal document and its wording directly.
access-date or accessdate 
The date that you viewed the URL, not the date of the case. This presently is not displayed, which is inconsistent with other citation templates.
via 
Name of the website (republisher) if the URL does not go to the site of the reporter above. This presently is not displayed, which is inconsistent with other citation templates.
lang 
Two-letter ISO 639-1 language code for the language in which the document is written, if it is not English (leave this parameter out if it is). This presently is not displayed, which is inconsistent with other citation templates.
archive-url or archiveurl 
URL to a backup copy of the document at Wayback.Archive.org or some other archival site. This presently is not displayed, which is inconsistent with other citation templates.
archive-date or archivedate 
Date of the above archival. This presently is not displayed, which is inconsistent with other citation templates.
url-status 
live if the original URL no longer works; dead or blank otherwise; controls what is done with the archive-url. This presently is not functional, which is inconsistent with other citation templates.
This is the TemplateData documentation for this template used by VisualEditor and other tools; see the monthly parameter usage report for this template.
