| File:Edit-copy green.svg | This is a documentation subpage for Template:Cite AHD. It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
Usage
This template creates a {{cite web}} citation to individual records at the Australian Heritage Database, a useful searchable reference source on Australia's heritage places.
Parameters
- There are two unnamed parameters
- Place ID number. This is the only mandatory parameter. It can be found at the end of the URL
- An optional title
For example, the Emery Point Lighthouse record can be referenced using
{{cite AHD|16274|Emery Point Lighthouse}}
resulting in:
"Emery Point Lighthouse (Place ID 16274)". Australian Heritage Database. Department of the Environment.
Or, if one prefers not to mention the title:
{{cite AHD|16274}}
results in:
"Place ID 16274". Australian Heritage Database. Department of the Environment.
- The date of registration can be specified using the
datefield. - In addition, the access date can be specified using the
accessdatefields. - Error checking is not done at all. Specifying an incorrect ID will result in a link to a non-existing record.
More examples
- Use of
dateandaccessdatefields:
{{cite AHD|105914|Sydney Opera House|date=28 July 2007|accessdate=2010-09-16}}
result:
"Sydney Opera House (Place ID 105914)". Australian Heritage Database. Department of the Environment. 28 July 2007. Retrieved 2010-09-16.
Harvard style referencing
This template provides a simple Harvard style reference, using AHD followed by the ID number. For example, to reference the Emery Point Lighthouse use {{sfn|AHD16274}} or {{harvnb|AHD16274}}, as appropriate. However, year referencing is not supported at this time.
