Purpose

This template facilitates the citation of articles from editions of The American Cyclopædia. Links to Wikisource or external sources are provided for. {{cite encyclopedia}} is used for the implementation.

Usage

{{Cite Americana|put the name of the article here}}

or with a specification of additional options:[note 1]

{{Cite AmCyc
 |name of the article
 |display=
 |author=
 |year=
 |volume=
 |page=
 |pages=
 |noicon=
 |vb=
 |title=
 |url=
}}

The year defaults to 1879.

Examples

Simple

{{Cite AmCyc|Rotteck, Karl von}}

displays as:

public domain Ripley, George; Dana, Charles A., eds. (1879). The American Cyclopædia. Missing or empty |title= (help)

With comment

{{Cite AmCyc|Rotteck, Karl von}} A German historian and activist for freedom of the press.

displays as:

Using noicon

{{Cite Americana|Cogniet, Leon|noicon=x}}

displays as:

Ripley, George; Dana, Charles A., eds. (1879). The American Cyclopædia. Missing or empty |title= (help)

Using vb

If text is incorporated verbatim into an article, the vb parameter can be used to tack on a notice appropriate to the policy in Wikipedia:Plagiarism.

{{Cite AmCyc|Rotteck, Karl von|vb=x}}

displays as:

public domain This article incorporates text from a publication now in the public domainRipley, George; Dana, Charles A., eds. (1879). The American Cyclopædia. Missing or empty |title= (help)

Using title (no Wikisource link)

{{Cite AmCyc|title=Rotteck, Karl von}}

displays as:

public domain Ripley, George; Dana, Charles A., eds. (1879). "Rotteck, Karl von". The American Cyclopædia.

When title is being used, url can be used to specify an external link.

Notes

  1. For compatibility with similar templates, the name of the article can also be specified using the wstitle parameter instead of an unnamed argument.
