This is a template for citations from the Dictionary of Australian Biography that are hosted at Gutenberg; it uses {{Cite encyclopedia}} to do the formatting.

Usage

{{Dictionary of Australian Biography
 |first=firstname
 |last=lastname
 |shortlink = xxxx.html#yyyy
 |access-date=16 March 2026
}} 

The |shortlink= argument should be determined by copying the link location component from the dictionary's index.

Example for the link http://gutenberg.net.au/ebooks15/1500721h/0-dict-biogP-Q.html#paterson1

{{Dictionary of Australian Biography
 |first=Andrew Barton "Banjo"
 |last=Paterson
 |shortlink=0-dict-biogP-Q.html#paterson1
 |access-date=16 March 2026
}}
