Purpose
This template facilitates the citation of articles from either an external source or from the Wikisource project Easton's Bible Dictionary in the manner of {{cite encyclopaedia}}.
Usage
To link to an article on Wikisource:
{{Cite EBD|wstitle=EBD article name}}
or to name an article and optionally link to another site using the url parameter:
{{Cite EBD|title=EBD article name|url=url here}}
Using the article name Samaritan Pentateuch as an example with wstitle=:
{{Cite EBD|wstitle=Samaritan Pentateuch}}
- Easton, Matthew George (1897). . Easton's Bible Dictionary (New and revised ed.). T. Nelson and Sons.
and with title= and url=
{{Cite EBD|title=Samaritan Pentateuch|url=http://archive.org/stream/illustratedbible00east#page/598/mode/1up}}
Easton, Matthew George (1897). "Samaritan Pentateuch". Easton's Bible Dictionary (New and revised ed.). T. Nelson and Sons.
If the parameter short=1 is set then some of the other parameters are not displayed:
- . Easton's Bible Dictionary. 1897.
The parameter noicon=1 stops the display of the icon:
- Easton, Matthew George (1897). "Samaritan Pentateuch". Easton's Bible Dictionary (New and revised ed.). T. Nelson and Sons.
noicon=1 and short=1 can be combined:
There are some other parameters available (a subset of those contained in {{cite encyclopedia}}). These are:
