This is a template for citations from the Dictionary of Australian Biography that are hosted at Gutenberg; it uses {{Cite encyclopedia}} to do the formatting.

Usage

{{Dictionary of Australian Biography
 |first=firstname
 |last=lastname
 |shortlink = xxxx.html#yyyy
 |accessdate=19 March 2026
}} 

The |shortlink= argument should be determined by copying the link location component from the dictionary's index.
