Parameters
- Manual section
- Manual page name
- Source (the name of a subpage in the Template:Man namespace e.g. FreeBSD. Leave blank for the current default.)
- Page description
- Style parameter; currently
inlineomits the attribution.

Please add to this table as you write new sources!

Other sources
Occasionally you will come across manual pages for which writing a source is overkill. In this case you can use Template:man/format directly with a URL for formatting:
In Out {{man/format|1|dbx|http://...|source-level debugging tool|[[Sun Studio]] Developer's Manual}}: source-level debugging tool – Sun Studio Developer's Manual
The interface of Template:man/format is therefore externally visible and needs to be kept constant.
Hacking
Writing sources
A source takes three parameters:
- Manual section
- Manual page name
- Output selector:
attribfor attribution,urlfor URL to page.
See Template:Man/die.net for an example; see Template:Man/FreeBSD for a demonstration of varying the attribution by manual section.
Internals
Template:man handles choosing the default source and calling it for URL and attribution; the default source is Template:man/default, which is a template redirect currently to Template:man/die.net. Template:man/format actually formats the link and descriptions into a nice-looking link+auxilia in Unix style.
