| This is a documentation subpage for Template:Cite pmid. It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
| Please do not add the cite pmid template to articles since no bot generates these anymore. Also, this template is deprecated. |
| Per WP:CITEVAR, only use this template in articles whose references are formatted as described below. Please do not use the cite pmid template in articles whose references are formatted differently (e.g., articles that use the Vancouver system). |
Usage
Saves you filling out a citation template every time you want to cite a source. If your source has a PMID, just enter {{Cite pmid|PMID of your source}}.
Simplest form which will put a number at the citation location and place the citation in the reference section:
<ref>{{Cite pmid|PMID}}</ref>[1]
If another Wikipedia article already uses that reference (via the Cite pmid template), it will automatically use the existing information to present the full citation details of the reference in the article. If not, a bot will retrieve the information from PubMed and create the citation for you within a few minutes.
Use like this:
<ref name="Example2006">{{Cite pmid|12122621}}</ref>[2]
To refer to the same reference elsewhere in the same article, use:
<ref name="Example2006" />[2]
Removing the "edit" link
If you want to remove the "edit" link that this template places, add a second parameter with the text "noedit":
<ref name="Example2006a">{{Cite pmid|12122621|noedit}}</ref>[3]
Technical overview
The template works by transcluding a template, which is stored as Template:cite pmid/xxxxxxxx. This subpage is filled out by a bot using the {{cite journal}} syntax. If the article already exists in, say, Template:Cite doi, a redirect to the appropriate page will be created.
