Usage

This template takes two parameters, both optional.

The first, unnamed parameter has the text that is shown:

  • {{British-Museum-object|EA 32751}}

Then parameter |url= can be used to create an external link:

  • {{British-Museum-object|The Ringlemere gold cup|url=http://www.britishmuseum.org/explore/highlights/highlight_objects/pe_prb/t/the_ringlemere_gold_cup.aspx}}
  • {{British-Museum-object||url=https://www.britishmuseum.org/explore/highlights/highlight_objects/pe_prb/t/the_ringlemere_gold_cup.aspx}}

Parameter |id=, can be used for the database number instead of the full url. This automatically generates the url for the BM collection database record, with "objectid=" in the url. (This number is not to be confused with the British Museum "registration number", department based "big number" or the image identification numbers shown on photographs).

  • {{British-Museum-object|EA 32751|id=117645}}

Note that if |url=, this will have no effect.

Using no parameters may be trivial:

  • {{British-Museum-object}}

Notes

The examples are from Ringlemere Cup and Ginger (mummy).
