Template:Cite book

From WiKirby, your independent source of Kirby knowledge.
Jump to navigationJump to search


Purpose[edit]

This is a variant of the {{cite}} template that is to be used when you're pulling a quote or information from a book that is not a manual, such as a strategy guide. This is to be used to cite sources, and should be used within <ref></ref> tags.

Usage[edit]

To use, enter this code:

{{Cite book| quote= [the quote]| book= [book title]| publisher= [the book's publisher]| page= [the page(s) the quote appears on]}}

Replace the parts in [ brackets ] like so:

  • quote
    • The direct quote.
  • book
    • The FULL TITLE of the book that the quote is from.
  • publisher
    • The publisher of the book (Nintendo, Prima Games, etc.).
  • page
    • The number of the page(s) the quote appears on.

Example: {{cite book|book=20th Anniversary - Hoshi no Kirby: Pupupu Taizen|publisher=Shogakukan|page=125}}

Will generate:

20th Anniversary - Hoshi no Kirby: Pupupu Taizen (Shogakukan), pg. 125
