Usage
Cut and paste one of these blank versions to use. Note that all fields must be lowercase, and remember to use the "|" (pipe) character between each field.
 * Horizontal list:

produces "2nd ed.".
 * series: When the document is part of a series of publications.
 * volume: Not generally required for a thesis. For one document published in several volumes. However, this template displays the text in this parameter in bold type after the title and series parameters. An alternative is to include the volume information in the title parameter after the main title (see example below). (NB: there is a separate Cite encyclopedia template).
 * date: Full date of document edition being referenced, in the same format as other dates in citations in the same article. Must not be wikilinked. Do not use for years without specifying the month: use year instead.
 * OR: year: Year of document edition being referenced
 * month: Name of the month of document. If you also have the day, use date instead. Must not be wikilinked.
 * origyear: Original document year, for display alongside the date or year. For clarity, please supply specifics, for instance   or  . This parameter only displays if there is a value for year or date.
 * publisher: Name of the individual or group releasing the cited version of the production, or airing the broadcast—for example, "Paramount Pictures" or "Disney" or "History Channel International". For translated works, this is the licenser/distributor.
 * location: Geographic location of the publisher.
 * time: Roughly what time, if accessible, a scene occurs within a production. Useful for citing specific scenes, quotations or data.
 * id: A unique identifier, used if none of the above are applicable. In this case, you need to specify the kind of identifier you are using, preferably with a template like ISSN or UPC. (Use one of the more specialized parameters (see below) when available; they are linked automatically. In other words, don't use, but  .)
 * isbn: International Standard Book Number such as 1-111-22222-9.
 * oclc: Online Computer Library Center ID number, such as 3185581.
 * quote: relevant quotation from the source.
 * ref: ID for anchor. By default, no anchor is generated. The ordinary nonempty value ID generates an anchor with the given ; such a linkable reference can be made the target of wikilinks to full references, especially useful in short citations like shortened notes and parenthetical referencing. The special value harv generates an anchor suitable for the harv template; for this to work, both people and date must be specified. See also anchors for Harvard referencing templates.
 * laysummary: Link to a non-technical summary (or review) of the document
 * laydate: Date of summary
 * separator: The separator to use in lists of authors, editors, etc. Defaults to ".", but "," may be useful also. If the parameter is present, but blank, no separator will be used.
 * author-separator: Parameter allowing punctuation style to be altered
 * author-name-separator: Parameter allowing punctuation style to be altered
 * display-authors: By default, the number of authors displayed is limited to 8; if 9 are provided, the ninth is displayed as "et al.". This parameter allows display of fewer authors before the "et al." (e.g., 2); alternatively, the "et al." may be suppressed by the use of 9.
 * postscript: The closing punctuation for the citation. If specified, over-rides the default behaviour of terminating the citation with a full stop. If the parameter is present, but blank, no terminating punctuation will be used. This may be useful when generating an output consistent with other templates. It is preferred to manually adding ending punctuation, as the punctuation occurs within the &lt;cite&gt; tag, so will appear before any icons added by browser plugins. Ignored if quote is specified.
 * lastauthoramp: The separator to use between the last two names in lists of authors. Defaults to "", but "&amp;" may be useful as well.
