**&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;authorlink&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; works either with &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;author&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; or with &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;last&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; &amp;amp; &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;first&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; to link to the appropriate article&lt;br /&gt;
**&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;coauthors&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;: Full name of additional author or authors. Please use &amp;#039;author2&amp;#039;, &amp;#039;author3&amp;#039;, etc instead.&lt;br /&gt;

Day of month of publication (ignored if the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;date&amp;#039;&amp;#039; field is used, or if the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;month&amp;#039;&amp;#039; field is &amp;#039;&amp;#039;not&amp;#039;&amp;#039; used).&lt;br /&gt;

Identification of the series (n.s., 2d ser., 3d ser., ser. b) must be made in citations to these journals.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
**&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;version&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;: Use when citing a paper. It may be used, for example, for standards documents, which retain the same title and document number (e.g. ISO nnnnn) but may have many revisions (e.g. ISO nnnnn-xxxx).&lt;br /&gt;

**&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;location&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;: Place of publication for journal or periodical.&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;issn&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;: The publication&amp;#039;s [[w:International Standard Serial Number|International Standard Serial Number]] such as &amp;#039;&amp;#039;1111-2220&amp;#039;&amp;#039;. The eight-figure ISSN may be split into two groups of four using a [[w:hyphen|hyphen]]; but neither an [[w:Dash#En dash|N-dash]] or a space are valid for use as separator between the groups. &amp;lt;!-- space separates URL from linkable text; n-dash is not recognised by WorldCat --&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;pmid&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;: The document&amp;#039;s [[w:PMID|PubMed Unique Identifier]], such as &amp;#039;&amp;#039;15128012&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;pmc&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;: The document&amp;#039;s [[Biology:PubMed Central|PubMed Central]] article number (PMCID) for full-text free repository of an article, such as  &amp;#039;&amp;#039;246835&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
**&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;pmc-embargo-date&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;: The date that an article will be freely accessible at PubMed central.  After this date, the title will automatically link to the free full text at PubMed Central.&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;oclc&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;: The periodical&amp;#039;s [[w:Online Computer Library Center|Online Computer Library Center]] ID number, such as &amp;#039;&amp;#039;3185581&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;doi&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;: A [[w:Wikipedia:Digital Object Identifier|digital object identifier]] for the document, such as &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;10.1130/0091-7613(1990)018&amp;lt;1153:TAFSIA&amp;gt;2.3.CO;2&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
:*&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;doi_brokendate&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;: Sometimes the doi target link might not function (e.g. the journal is transferred to a new publisher which does not provide doi access). A blanked out &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;doi&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; parameter could lead to a later editor or bot re-adding the doi. Instead, use this parameter, which takes a date argument. &amp;#039;&amp;#039;Must not be wikilinked&amp;#039;&amp;#039;. &amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;The &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;doi&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; value is still shown, but without a link.&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;bibcode&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;: The document&amp;#039;s [[Bibcode|bibcode]] in the [[Physics:Astrophysics Data System|Astrophysics Data System]], e.g., &amp;#039;&amp;#039;1924MNRAS..84..308E&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;id&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;: A [[Unique identifier|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 {{tl|arXiv}} or {{tl|JSTOR}}.  (Use one of the more specialized parameters if possible; they are linked automatically.  In other words, don&amp;#039;t use &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;id = PMID 15128012&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; anymore.  Use &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;pmid = 15128012&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;.)&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;language&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;: Language, e.g. Finnish.  (English is assumed and should not be specified.)&amp;lt;!--&lt;br /&gt;

**&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;trans_title&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;: Translated (English) title, when the title is in a foreign language. Can be used without source title when the source title is unknown.}}&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;url&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;: This should point to, in descending order of preference:&lt;br /&gt;
:#A &amp;#039;&amp;#039;free&amp;#039;&amp;#039; online version of the full text&lt;br /&gt;
:#An online version of the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;full text&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, for which subscription is required&lt;br /&gt;
:#An abstract or information page, &amp;#039;&amp;#039;if&amp;#039;&amp;#039; no DOI or PMID record is available&lt;br /&gt;
::If a DOI or PMID is available, the URL should only be specified if it would point to a different page to that which a DOI or PMID would redirect to.  &lt;br /&gt;
::Note: the URL must be properly encoded, especially replacing any double quote (&amp;quot;) with %22. See [[w:Percent-encoding|Percent-encoding]] for more information.&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;accessdate&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;: Full date when URL was last checked. Should use the same format as the other full dates in the references. Must not be wikilinked.&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;format&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;: Format of document at that URL, e.g. PDF. Don&amp;#039;t specify for HTML (implied as default). This parameter is sometimes used for completely different purposes, with values such as &amp;quot;fee required&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;reprint&amp;quot;, but its original intent was to warn readers of file formats that their browsers might have trouble with.&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;laysummary&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;: URL of a lay summary, which could be in a popular science magazine or newspaper.&lt;br /&gt;
**&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;laysource&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;: Name of the source, e.g. &amp;#039;&amp;#039;The Guardian&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (UK newspaper) or &amp;#039;&amp;#039;New Scientist&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
**&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;laydate&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;: Date of publication or, where this is not available, date of retrieval of the lay summary.&lt;br /&gt;
:An alternate method of adding one or more references to common media (preferably in [[w:Layman&amp;#039;s terms|Layman&amp;#039;s terms]]) from the related journal citation can be specified &amp;#039;&amp;#039;within&amp;#039;&amp;#039; a single &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;...&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; tag using other [[:Category:Citation templates|citation templates]]; for example:&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Text in the article.&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;amp;lt;ref&amp;amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;{{cite journal | ... }}&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Related news articles:&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
*{{cite news | ... }}&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
*{{cite web | ... }}&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;amp;lt;/ref&amp;amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;quote&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;: Relevant excerpt from the journal.&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;ref&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;: ID for anchor. By default, no anchor is generated. The ordinary nonempty value {{para|ref|&amp;lt;var&amp;gt;ID&amp;lt;/var&amp;gt;}} generates an anchor with the given &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;var&amp;gt;ID&amp;lt;/var&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;; 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 {{para|ref|harv}} generates an anchor suitable for the {{tl|harv}} template; see &amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Template:Citation/doc #Anchors for Harvard referencing templates|anchors for Harvard referencing templates]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;postscript&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;: if specified, over-rides the default behaviour of terminating the citation with a full stop.  Leave blank to suppress the full stop.  This may be useful when using a quote which ends in punctuation, or when generating an output consistent with other templates. It is preferred to manually adding ending punctuation, as the punctuation occurs within the &amp;amp;lt;cite&amp;amp;gt; tag, so will appear before any icons added by browser plugins.&amp;lt;noinclude&amp;gt;[[Category:Template namespace templates|{{PAGENAME}}]]&amp;lt;/noinclude&amp;gt;&lt;/div&gt;</summary>
