Template talk:Bouillet

April 2012

I have made some major modifications to the template. If someone can supply me with the names of the that always have similar content (such as the date of publication or the editors names) I can add that information into the template.

One of the major changes is that the template is now similar to about a dozen others such as {{DGRBM}}. They are wrappers around {{cite encyclopedia}}, this means that the citation format is similar to an other general references that cite encyclopaedias.

The largest visual change is that the template now asks for the name of an article. It can be provided two ways:

1. wstitle=article name if it exists on wikisource at wikisource:fr:Dictionnaire universel d’histoire et de géographie Bouillet Chassang or
2. title=article name if it does not. In which case another variable exists url=link to link to an external URL.

An example wikisource:

• {{Bouillet|wstitle=S#SPANHEIM ou SPONHEIM,}}  This article incorporates text from a publication now in the public domain: Bouillet, Marie-Nicolas; Chassang, Alexis, eds. (1878). "S#SPANHEIM ou SPONHEIM,". Dictionnaire Bouillet (in French). — BTW the comma at the end of the title is nasty and it needs removing from the French wikisource index. But as I do not speak French I think it wise for someone who does to do it.

An example from an external URL:

• {{Bouillet|url=http://gallica.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/bpt6k4849m/f483 |title=Créqui (Charles de) |page=475}} This article incorporates text from a publication now in the public domain: Bouillet, Marie-Nicolas; Chassang, Alexis, eds. (1878). "Créqui (Charles de)". Dictionnaire Bouillet (in French). p. 475.

I noticed that there is a hidden category called Category:Wikipedia articles incorporating text from the Dictionnaire Bouillet, which will allow someone to check out and add Bouillet article names to the 32 Wikipedia articles that use this template.
