| This is a documentation subpage for Template:DNB footer initials. It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
| This template should not be used in citation templates such as Citation Style 1 and Citation Style 2, because it includes markup that will pollute the COinS metadata they produce; see Wikipedia:COinS. |
Usage
{{DNB footer initials|John Smith|J.S.}} renders "John Smith (Signing as J.S. in the DNB)"
Add "|dn=yes" when "John Smith" is a disambiguation page and you don't know the correct article to link to.
Conversely if you do know the page
{{DNB footer initials|John Smith|J.S.|John Smith (brewer)}} renders "John Smith (Signing as J.S. in the DNB)"
