Template:Harvnb

This template documentation is transcluded from Template:Harvnb/doc [edit]

Usage

{{Harvard citation no brackets | ''Last name of author(s)'' | ''Year'' | ''Location in the text'' }}

Alternative to using Location, you may also use the following parameters:

p = page pp = pages

Notes

• The abbreviation Harvnb may be used.
• The first parameter is the author's last name.
• The second parameter is the year of publication.
• The third parameter is the location of the cited material within the reference. This parameter is optional.
• The parameter p is an optional page parameter (e.g., "{{ Harvnb | Smith | 2006 | p=25 }}" yields Smith 2006, p. 25.
• The parameter pp is an optional page range parameter (e.g., "{{ Harvnb | Smith | 2006 | pp=25-26 }}" yields Smith 2006, pp. 25-26.

If Ref=none, then no hyperlink is created.

• Smith 2006, pp. 25-26

Purpose

There are limited situations in which it is undesirable to surround a Harvard citation by brackets. An example may be where the citation has been formatted as an inline citation using cite.php. See also Template:Harvard citation.
