Template:Cite doi

Use like this:

<ref name="Example2006">{{Cite doi|10.1146/annurev.earth.33.092203.122621}}</ref>

To refer to the same reference elsewhere in the same article, use:

<ref name="Example2006"/>

Quotes

To include a quote from the reference, just place it inside the ref tags. To include more than one quote, the name parameter must be unique for each ref tag.

<ref name="Example2006a">{{Cite doi|10.1146/annurev.earth.33.092203.122621}} "A sample quote"</ref>^[1]

<ref name="Example2006b">{{Cite doi|10.1146/annurev.earth.33.092203.122621}} "Another sample quote"</ref>^[2]

Second references for each

<ref name="Example2006a" /><ref name="Example2006b" />^[1][2]

If the quote should appear every time a reference is used, then add a quote parameter to the cite doi template.

Removing the "edit" link

If you want to remove the "edit" link that this template places, add a second parameter with the text "noedit":

<ref name="Example2006c">{{Cite doi|10.1146/annurev.earth.33.092203.122621|noedit}}</ref>^[3]

Modifying display of authors

The number of authors displayed can be modified by adding a "displayauthors = n" parameter:

• <ref>{{Cite doi/sandbox|10.1140/epja/i2006-10091-y}}</ref>^[4]
• <ref>{{Cite doi/sandbox|10.1140/epja/i2006-10091-y|displayauthors=6}}</ref>^[5]

and follow the edit link in the template and insert the following "pass through" parameter into the cite doi template:

• |displayauthors={{{displayauthors|}}}

The authors can be displayed in a Vancouver system format by adding a "van=yes" parameter:

• <ref>{{Cite doi/sandbox|10.1140/epja/i2006-10091-y|displayauthors=6|van=yes}}</ref>^[6]

and follow the edit link in the template and insert the following "pass through" parameters into the cite doi template:

• |displayauthors={{{displayauthors|}}} |authorformat={{{authorformat|}}} |author-separator={{{author-separator|}}} |author-name-separator={{{author-name-separator|}}}

Example references

Troubleshooting

DOIs containing certain characters are not displayed and must be substituted in-text after expansion.

• < should be replaced with .3C
• > should be replaced with .3E

Formatting

Templates produced via the Cite doi template need to be formatted consistently so they match the reference formatting of all the articles in which they are used. Therefore, they are formatted under the following guidelines. The correct formatting is maintained by Citation bot. Please do not use the Cite doi template in articles whose references are formatted differently. (You could subst: the template and change its formatting in the article, or modify the article to use this mode of formatting if appropriate).

Citation template

Template:Cite journal

Author formatting

Smith, A. B. (not "Smith, Arthur Brown"; initial separated by a single space)

The usual guidelines for wikilinking apply: only use |author1-link= if the link adds value to the citation.

Page number formatting

first and last page numbers written in full; for instance, R100–R101

Dates

If a month or season may help locate a journal article, specify it with the |date= parameter (e.g. |date=Sep 2009 or |date=Winter 1988). Do not specify the |day= or |month= parameters.

Links

The URL should point to (in descending order of preference):

• Free access to the full text of the article on the publisher's Web site
• Free full text on an author's Web site (if no copyright issues)
• Free full text on an advert-supported Web site
• Free proofs/drafts on an author's personal Web site (if no copyright issues)
• Avoid adding links to articles located behind a paywall. The DOI link already takes care of that.

As a further point, unnecessary whitespace in Cite doi templates should be avoided.

Technical overview

The template works by transcluding a template, which is stored as Template:cite doi/anchor_encoded_version_of_DOI. This subpage is filled out by a bot using the {{cite journal}} syntax.
