Usage

A template for Hong Kong court case citations. Mainly for citing unreported cases. All parameters are optional, though in practice there's no point in using this template unless you at least specify "id".

Examples

Enter Result Comments
{{Cite Hong Kong case|id=26850}} text Simplest case: id only
{{Cite Hong Kong case|id=26850|text=Your message goes here}} Your message goes here Overrides the default link text "text"
{{Cite Hong Kong case|list=HCA|number=5970|year=1999|id=26850}} HCA 5970/1999 Everything but litigants
{{Cite Hong Kong case|list=HCA|number=5970|year=1999}} HCA 5970/1999 Automatically generates link to search page if id not specified
{{Cite Hong Kong case|number=3283|year=1995|id=46158}} Case No. 3283/1995 Case number without list
{{Cite Hong Kong case|litigants=Cheng Yin-fong v Wah Kee Vegetables and On Ting Newspapers|list=HCA|number=5970|year=1999|id=26850}} Cheng Yin-fong v Wah Kee Vegetables and On Ting Newspapers, HCA 5970/1999 Full citation
{{Cite Hong Kong case|litigants=Cheng Yin-fong v Wah Kee Vegetables and On Ting Newspapers|list=HCA|number=5970|year=1999|id=26850|pinpoint=3}} Cheng Yin-fong v Wah Kee Vegetables and On Ting Newspapers, HCA 5970/1999, at para. 3 Full citation with pointer to specific paragraph; the link will take the reader directly to the paragraph in question.
{{Cite Hong Kong case|list=HCA|number=5970|year=1999|pinpoint=3}} HCA 5970/1999, at para. 3 Note that "pinpoint" does not have any effect on the link if "id" is not provided, because the link goes to a search page rather than the actual judgment.
{{cite Hong Kong case|list=HCA|number=2061|year=2004|judgmentyear=2006|id=54062|hklii=1021|litigants=Mimi Monica Wong v. Mirko Saccani and Gaynor Fairweather|pinpoint=160}} Mimi Monica Wong v. Mirko Saccani and Gaynor Fairweather, HCA 2061/2004, at para. 160 If you specify "hklii", then the template will generate an extra link to the Hong Kong Legal Information Institute website.

Parameters

litigants 
List of litigants, such as "Sun Er-jo v. Lo Ching and others". If a Wikipedia article using this exact string exists, a link will automatically be created. Alternately, if an article exists but another name is desired for display, a wikilink may be specified; i.e., "[[Case article|This v. That]]".
id 
The database id on judiciary.gov.hk. This is not a standard form of legal citation and is not displayed; it is merely used to generate the URL for the text of the judgment.
hklii 
The database id on the Hong Kong Legal Information Institute website. This is not a standard form of legal cititation and is not displayed; it is merely used (along with list and judgmentyear) to generate the URL for the text of the judgment. This parameter is optional; if it is used, the link to the HKLII will appear in parentheses after the link to judiciary.gov.hk.
list 
the abbreviation for the law list to which the case belongs (e.g. HCAL, LDBM, etc.). If not given but "number" is given, it will be displayed as "Case No.". Known values will have a tooltip displayed with {{abbr}} explaining what the abbreviation means; for the individual values, see the subtemplates for each of the courts (district court cases are not yet handled):
number 
the case number
year 
the year in which the case was originally filed (as opposed to the date of the hearing or judgment)
judgmentyear 
the year in which the judgment was issued (as opposed to the date the case was filed or heard)
text 
if none of list, number, year are specified, this overrides the link text from the default "text"
pinpoint 
a reference to a specific paragraph of the judgment. If "id" is provided, the link will point directly to the HTML anchor for that paragraph.
