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

Usage

This template provides a wrapper around accesses to the L'Almanacco di Gherardo Casaglia, an important online almanac of events in opera and classical music, indexed and accessed by date. Using such a wrapper helps isolate Wikipedia's links from changes in website addresses, structures and syntax.

The template allows the Almanacco to be searched by either date or text, or a combination of the two. In general, to return a single entry both the date and a text must be supplied.

Syntax of search parameters

{{ Almanacco | match=string }}
{{ Almanacco | dmy=dd-mm-yyyy }}
{{ Almanacco | dmy=dd-mm-yyyy | match=string }}

where

  • string is a sequence of one or more words (or part words) to match exactly in the Almanacco entries. The string should not be enclosed in quotes.
  • dd-mm-yyyy is a complete date, as a two-digit, zero-padded day, followed by a hyphen, a two-digit, zero-padded month, a second hyphen, and a four-digit year. E.g.: 05-07-1870 for 5 July 1870.

Syntax of display parameters

The template will automatically create a label for the link, showing the standard information about the almanac, and the input parameters in a readable format. Examples:

  • {{Almanacco | dmy=02-12-1840 }}
  • {{Almanacco | match=La favorite }}
  • {{Almanacco | dmy=02-12-1840 | match=La favorite }}

will display as:

{{ Almanacco | label=linktext }}

You can override this default linking text by using the label=linktext option. The linktext should not include double quotes marks. Example:

  • {{Almanacco | dmy=02-12-1840 | match=La favorite | label=The premiere cast of ''La favorite'' }}

will display as:

{{ Almanacco | linkonly=t }}

To suppress the rest of the words in the template output, and get the bare link on its own, include the linkonly=t option. Example:

  • {{Almanacco | dmy=02-12-1840 | match=La favorite | label=The premiere cast of ''La favorite'' | linkonly=t }}

will display as:
