 | This template should always be substituted (i.e., use {{subst:Chicago 16th}}). |
Usage edit
This template is a "shorthand" template for creating a properly formatted reference citation to The Chicago Manual of Style 16th Ed. (current as of February 2012[update], without having to specify all the parameters of {{Cite book}}. The CMoS most often cited in articles on grammar and style, and in Wikipedia's own WP:Manual of Style. The template is almost always used inside <ref name="Chicago 16th"></ref>.
If you need to cite the same source in the same article more than once, use <ref name="Chicago 16th" /> for the subsequent citations.
{{Chicago 16th
|p=
|pp=
|at=
|title=
|accessdate=
|url=
}}
Parameters edit
The first three listed parameters are required.
{{Chicago 16th
|p=page number or |pp=page numbers
|at=section number – required
|title=Section title – required – or do both, with colon, at once: |at=section number: Section title
|url=location in online version – optional
}}
The numbered section of the CMoS must be added, with the |at= parameter, as it is the only way to find the material in the online version, which is not paginated like the print book.
Page numbering edit
See {{rp}} if a page number is needed in subsequent citations with the <ref name="Chicago 16th" /> notation.
Otherwise, simply add the page number(s) as the named |p= or |pp=.
The URL to the online version can be added manually, with the |url= parameter, but it will auto-generate a (subscription required) tag in the citation, since the online version is not free to access.
{{Chicago 16th|pp=671–673|at=14.38|title=Footnotes and endnotes – an overview}}
Example edit
Article text.<ref name="Chicago 16th">{{Chicago 16th|pp=671–673|at=14.38|title=Footnotes and endnotes – an overview}}</ref>
