Line 12:
Citations within a page should use consistent formats. However, there is no consensus about which format is best. The following examples are for citations where one or more authors are listed in a single {{para|author|<var>authors</var>}} parameter, using any format. Also shown below are three separate date formats that are commonly used in Wikipedia:
;YYYY-MM-DD: <code><nowiki>{{
;Day Month Year: <code><nowiki>{{
;Month Day, Year: <code><nowiki>{{
=== Common forms with last1, first1; last2, first2 ===
Line 22:
The examples below will suffice for up to two authors each with first and last names; for more, just create more parameters in a similar style:
;YYYY-MM-DD: <code><nowiki>{{
;Day Month Year: <code><nowiki>{{
;Month Day, Year: <code><nowiki>{{
=== All parameters ===
Line 32:
When copying all parameters in either the vertical or horizontal layouts, delete those which are not needed.
;All parameters, horizontal layout: <code><nowiki>{{
;All parameters, vertical layout:
