Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]


Usage

{{Cite ODNB|id=ODNB article number|title=ODNB article name}}

For example, {{Cite ODNB|id=29986|title=Worsley, Sir Richard}} displays:

"Worsley, Sir Richard". Oxford Dictionary of National Biography (online ed.). Oxford University Press. doi:10.1093/ref:odnb/29986. Template:ODNBsub

List of supported parameters

This template supports all parameters that are supported by {{cite encyclopedia}}. These few are pre-set within the template (may be overridden):

  • |encyclopedia=[[Oxford Dictionary of National Biography]]
  • |edition=online
  • |publisher=[[Oxford University Press]]

Article titles and identification:

Years and dates

  • |origyear=original year — The initial year of publication is usually 2004; if the entry has been updated, the current year parameter may be different.
  • |year=year of ODNB article publication
  • |date=date of ODNB article publication — If date and year parameters are both set then date parameter value is displayed but year parameter value is used by templates such as {{harvnb}}.
  • |access-date= — Not needed as the ODNB has both date of article modification, a builtin archive and a doi structure; if used, requires |url=

Some articles are freely available to the public, such as Virginia Woolf. In those cases, you can add the |freearticle= parameter.

Hidden categories

This template places articles that incorporate it into an administrative hidden category:

Pages using both |id= and |doi= are tracked in Category:Pages using cite ODNB with both doi and id parameters

See also

  • {{ODNBsub}} — A subscription template used as a postscript by this template.
  • {{DNBfirst}} — Can be placed on the same line as {{Cite ODNB}} to allow readers who do not have access to ODNB to see older versions of the text now in the public domain. This is particularly useful if there is a version of the text available on Wikisource. Please refrain from using this template if the same DNB article is already available in the Wikipedia article via {{Cite DNB}} or {{DNB}}.
  • {{Who's Who}}
  • Wikipedia:WikiProject Dictionary of National Biography.
  • {{Subscription or libraries}} — A template for use when a subscription may be required or the source may be at a library.
