| This is a documentation subpage for Template:Cite gvp. It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
This citation template can be used to cite Global Volcanism Program web pages using a Volcano Number.
Usage
A search engine can be found here.
| Parameters | Instructions |
|---|---|
{{cite gvp
| vnum =
| name =
| accessdate =
}}
|
Volcano Number on web page Volcano Name on web page Full date |
The fields vnum and name must be specified.
Bug
A documented feature in the MediaWiki software causes an error message when this template is used with unnamed parameters if the vnum contains an equals sign. For example Kerinci, a volcano in Indonesia, has a vnum of 0601-17=. When such a vnum occurs a citation like {{cite gvp|0601-17=|Kerinci}} will result in an error message. However, {{cite gvp|vnum=0601-17=|name=Kerinci}} or even {{cite gvp|1=0601-17=|2=Kerinci}} will work. For example:
{{cite gvp|1=0601-17=|2=Kerinci}} → "Kerinci". Global Volcanism Program. Smithsonian Institution.
Examples
- with named parameters
{{cite gvp|vnum=1201-04-|name=Adams|accessdate=2008-07-04}} → "Adams". Global Volcanism Program. Smithsonian Institution. Retrieved 2008-07-04.
- with named parameters
{{cite gvp|1=1201-04-|2=Adams|3=2008-07-04}} → "Adams". Global Volcanism Program. Smithsonian Institution. Retrieved 2008-07-04.
