This template provides a quick, standard method of citing the Dictionary of Indian Biography
It is a wrapper around the standard citation template {{cite encyclopedia}}. As such it fills out some {{cite encyclopedia}} parameters, but the full range of parameters provided by WP:CS1 are available. To change the appearance of the output to that of {{citation}} use the parameter |mode=cs2.
Usage
All parameters apart from |title= or |wstitle= are optional:
{{cite DIB |title=Abadie, Henry Richard}}{{cite DIB |wstitle=Abadie, Henry Richard}}Some parameters are pre-set:
|last=— is set to "Buckland"|first=— is set to "C.E."|date=— is set to "1906"|encyclopedia=— is set to "Dictionary of Indian Biography"|location=— is set to "London"|publisher=— is set to "Swan Sonnenschein & Co. Lim"
In addition to the full range of parameters provided by WP:CS1 there are some specialised parameters
|wstitle=— links to a Dictionary of Indian Biography article on Wikisource; an alternative to the standard parameter{{title}}.|display=— will display the text assigned to it in place of that for|wstitle=. This is useful for hiding disambiguation extensions.|short=— if set to anything it will prevent certain fields from being displayed. Useful to reduce verbiage when the template is used in the "External links" section.|noicon=y (or any other text) — this hides the icon at the start of the citation. It is not the same as the standard wikisource icon as found in{{cite wikisource}}which has been disabled in this template
