Using vb

If text is incorporated verbatim into an article, the vb parameter can be used to tack on a notice appropriate to the policy in Wikipedia:Plagiarism.

{{Cite EB1922|Lowell, Abbott Lawrence|vb=x}}

12px This article incorporates text from a publication now in the public domainChisholm, Hugh, ed. (1922). Encyclopædia Britannica (12th ed.). London & New York: The Encyclopædia Britannica Company. Missing or empty |title= (help)

Using display

The mechanics of Wikisource will sometimes require that a link have disambiguation information which is not part of the original title. The display parameter allows this information to be hidden for the purpose of the citation. For example:

{{Cite EB1922|Nicholas (Russian Grand Duke)|display=Nicholas (Nikolai Nikolayevich), Russian Grand Duke}}

displays as:

12px Chisholm, Hugh, ed. (1922). Encyclopædia Britannica (12th ed.). London & New York: The Encyclopædia Britannica Company. Missing or empty |title= (help)

Using title (no Wikisource link)

{{Cite EB1922|title=Fischer, Theobald}}

displays as:

12px Chisholm, Hugh, ed. (1922). "Fischer, Theobald". Encyclopædia Britannica (12th ed.). London & New York: The Encyclopædia Britannica Company.

When title is being used, url can be used to specify an external link.
