Usage

This template creates a "bulleted" link to a specified entry in the Dictionary of Canadian Biography Online.

{{DictCanbio|ID=####}}

The ID parameter is derived from the "id_nbr" parameter of the articles URL.

For example, if the biography item for Richard Willis Jameson is located at this URL:

http://www.biographi.ca/009004-119.01-e.php?&id_nbr=6182

Then the ID parameter in this case is 6182.

Set up the following template line for ID=6182:

{{DictCanbio|ID=6182}}

which produces the following list-bulleted link item:

"[[:Template:PAGENAMEBASE]]". Dictionary of Canadian Biography (online ed.). University of Toronto Press. 1979–2016. URL–wikilink conflict (help)
