Template:Citation Style documentation/author: Difference between revisions

** '''author-link''' and '''author-mask''' may be used for the individual names in {{para|vauthors}} as described above{{#if:{{{limited_param_list|}}}||

*'''authors''': Free-form list of author names; use of this parameter is discouraged because it does not contribute to a citation's metadata; not an alias of '''last'''.}}{{#if: {{{contributor|}}}|

**'''contributor-first''': Given or first names of contributor. Do not wikilink—use '''contributor-link''' instead. Aliases: '''contributor-given''', '''contributor1-first''', '''contributor-first1'''.

** OR: for multiple contributors, use '''contributor-last1''', '''contributor-first1''' through '''contributor-last<var>n</var>''', '''contributor-first<var>n</var>''' where ''n'' is any consecutive number for an unlimited number of contributors (each '''contributor-first<var>n</var>''' requires a corresponding '''contributor-last<var>n</var>''', but not the other way around). Aliases: '''contributor1-last''', '''contributor1-first''' through '''contributor<var>n</var>-last''', '''contributor<var>n</var>-first''', or '''contributor1''' through '''contributor<var>n</var>'''.
