| '''{{tlx|{{PAGENAME}}}}''' is a powerful template for generating in-universe, inline [[T:CITE|citations]]. In its most basic usage, it produces a collapsible bit of information about the source being cited, pulled directly from the infobox, intended to supplement the [[T:PREFIX|prefix]]. However, the template also has options for citing [[#Citing parts and episodes|specific parts and episodes]], [[#Citing variants|variants of sources that don't have their own page]] and [[#Precise citations|exact page numbers and timestamps]]. | | '''{{tlx|{{PAGENAME}}}}''' is a powerful template for generating in-universe, inline [[T:CITE|citations]].

| Basic usage of '''{{tlx|{{PAGENAME}}}}''' is extremely simple. Once the story you wish to cite has been converted to using the [[Template:Bongolium500/Infobox Story SMW|correct infobox]], simply cite the source using the format shown below:
| |
|
| |
| <pre>([[TV]]: {{User:Bongolium500/cite source|The Daleks (TV story)}})</pre>
| |
|
| |
| This produces ([[TV]]: {{User:Bongolium500/cite source|The Daleks (TV story)}}). Here is another example:
| |
|
| |
| <pre>([[PROSE]]: {{User:Bongolium500/cite source|Doctor Who in an Exciting Adventure with the Daleks (novelisation)}})</pre>
| |
|
| |
| It produces ([[PROSE]]: {{User:Bongolium500/cite source|Doctor Who in an Exciting Adventure with the Daleks (novelisation)}}). The <sup>+</sup> can be clicked in order to uncollapse some information about the cited story, taken from the infobox.
| |
|
| |
| == Citing parts of serials and comics ==
| |
| Sometimes, it can be benneficial to cite specific parts of stories. For serials with named episodes, use the following format:
| |
|
| |
| <pre>([[TV]]: {{User:Bongolium500/cite source|The Daleks (TV story)|namedep=The Dead Planet (1)}})</pre>
| |
|
| |
| This produces ([[TV]]: {{User:Bongolium500/cite source|The Daleks (TV story)|namedep=The Dead Planet (1)}}). Note that the <nowiki>{{{namedep}}}</nowiki> field must match the section header on the stories page exactly. The episode number in the brackets is stripped automatically when displayed.
| |
|
| |
| For parts of comics, use the following format:
| |
|
| |
| <pre>([[COMIC]]: {{User:Bongolium500/cite source|The Klepton Parasites (comic story)|part=One}})</pre>
| |
|
| |
| This produces ([[COMIC]]: {{User:Bongolium500/cite source|The Klepton Parasites (comic story)|part=One}}). Unamed episodes of serials can be cited in a similar way. Simply swap out <nowiki>{{{part}}}</nowiki> for <nowiki>{{{ep}}}</nowiki>. Note that the field must match the exact format used on the section header, sans "Part" or "Episode". This includes capitalisation.
| |
|
| |
| == Citing variants ==
| |
| Some stories have variants with slight differences. To accurately cite these, [[User:Bongolium500/store variant data|this template]] must be filled out with information about the variant and placed on the stories page below the infobox. Take note of the <nowiki>{{{variant}}}</nowiki> field. Variant citations use the following format:
| |
|
| |
| <pre>([[TV]]: {{User:Bongolium500/cite source|The Five Doctors (TV story)|var=special edition}})</pre>
| |
|
| |
| This produces ([[TV]]: {{User:Bongolium500/cite source|The Five Doctors (TV story)|var=special edition}}). The <nowiki>{{{var}}}</nowiki> field should be exactly the same as the <nowiki>{{{variant}}}</nowiki> field on the <nowiki>{{store variant data}}</nowiki> template.
| |
|
| |
| Multiple variants can also co-exist for the same story. For example,
| |
|
| |
| ([[TV]]: {{User:Bongolium500/cite source|The Faceless Ones (TV story)|var=animated reconstruction}})
| |
|
| |
| ([[TV]]: {{User:Bongolium500/cite source|The Faceless Ones (TV story)|var=telesnap reconstruction}})
| |
|
| |
| ([[TV]]: {{User:Bongolium500/cite source|The Faceless Ones (TV story)|var=narrated soundtrack}})
| |
|
| |
| You can also cite parts with variants:
| |
|
| |
| ([[TV]]: {{User:Bongolium500/cite source|The Faceless Ones (TV story)|var=animated reconstruction|ep=1}})
| |
|
| |
| == Accurate citations ==
| |
| Sometimes, with books, it can be useful to cite specific editions, chapters and pages. This is done with the <nowiki>{{{ed}}}</nowiki>, <nowiki>{{{chapt}}}</nowiki> and <nowiki>{{{page}}}</nowiki> fields, used for the edition, chapter and page(s) respectively. They can be used in any combination, but it is encouraged to always use <nowiki>{{{ed}}}</nowiki> with <nowiki>{{{page}}}</nowiki> as page numbers can change between editions. Some examples are below:
| |
|
| |
| <pre>([[PROSE]]: {{User:Bongolium500/cite source|Doctor Who in an Exciting Adventure with the Daleks (novelisation)|ed=1965 Armada edition|chapt=1. A Meeting on the Common}})</pre>
| |
|
| |
| This produces ([[PROSE]]: {{User:Bongolium500/cite source|Doctor Who in an Exciting Adventure with the Daleks (novelisation)|ed=1965 Armada edition|chapt=1. A Meeting on the Common}}).
| |
|
| |
| <pre>([[PROSE]]: {{User:Bongolium500/cite source|The Eight Doctors (novel)|page=10}})</pre>
| |
|
| |
| This produces ([[PROSE]]: {{User:Bongolium500/cite source|The Eight Doctors (novel)|page=10}}).
| |
|
| |
| <pre>([[PROSE]]: {{User:Bongolium500/cite source|The Eight Doctors (novel)|page=10-20}})</pre>
| |
|
| |
| This produces ([[PROSE]]: {{User:Bongolium500/cite source|The Eight Doctors (novel)|page=10-20}}). Note how "page" becomes "pages" when the dash is added.
| |
|
| |
| The same that has just been said about books also applies to TV and audios. In edition to <nowiki>{{{ed}}}</nowiki> and <nowiki>{{{chapt}}}</nowiki>, you can also add timestamps:
| |
|
| |
| <pre>([[AUDIO]]: {{User:Bongolium500/cite source|The Boundless Sea (audio story)|timestamp=12:10}})</pre>
| |
|
| |
| ([[AUDIO]]: {{User:Bongolium500/cite source|The Boundless Sea (audio story)|timestamp=12:10}})
| |
|
| |
| <pre>([[AUDIO]]: {{User:Bongolium500/cite source|The Boundless Sea (audio story)|minute=12|second=2}})</pre>
| |
|
| |
| ([[AUDIO]]: {{User:Bongolium500/cite source|The Boundless Sea (audio story)|minute=12|second=2}})
| |
|
| |
| <pre>([[AUDIO]]: {{User:Bongolium500/cite source|The Boundless Sea (audio story)|hour=one}})</pre>
| |
|
| |
| ([[AUDIO]]: {{User:Bongolium500/cite source|The Boundless Sea (audio story)|hour=one}})
| |
