 | This template is a Citation Style 1 specific-source template based on {{Citation}}. For centralized Citation Style 1 discussions, see Help talk:Citation Style 1. |
Generates a citation for the "World Population Prospects" spreadsheet of the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs, Population Division.
Usage[edit]
{{Cite UN World Population Prospects|YYYY}}{{cite UN WPP|YYYY|rows=first:last|cols=col1, col2, col3, ...}}
Parameters[edit]
One required positional parameter, and multiple named parameters:
|1=, year of the report. Required, no default; legal values: 2019, 2022.
All named parameters are optional. These four are unique to this template; normally, just use the first one or two, and default the rest:
|rows=, enter comma-separated spreadsheet row numbers or colon-separated ranges; e.g.,7870:7941.|cols=, enter comma-separated alphabetic spreadsheet column id's or colon ranges; e.g.:X,AE,S,AH,S,AA:AC,T.|short=yes, abbreviates title, author, publisher; drops version and archive linkage; default: includes all fields and uses the long form.|tab=, which tab on the spreadsheet contains the data; default:Estimates. Alias:|sheet=. Ex: if the WP article cites the "Medium variants" tab of the spreadsheet, then include|tab=Medium variants.
The remaining parameters are available if you need to override the defaults provided by the template, but should be left out otherwise. These parameters wrap {{Citation}} parameters of the same name; see Citation#Parameters for more information about these.
|edition=, default:Online ed.See Citation#Edition, series, volume.|volume=, default: the id in the header of the spreadsheet (in the 2022 version, cell 'E12':POP/DB/WPP/Rev.2022/GEN/F01/Rev.1) See Citation#Edition, series, volume.|version=, series number of the population data; e.g., 2022 = '27'. See Citation#Edition, series, volume.|ref=, you may use this param with {{harvid}} to set your own ref for {{sfn}} linkage, as a #CITEREF reference anchor. See Citation#Anchor. For usage examples, see § With shortened footnotes below.|id=, unique id; see Citation#Identifiers.
As inline citation[edit]
The template may be used as an inline citation, by placing it between ref tags:
<ref>{{Cite UN World Population Prospects|2022}}</ref>
This creates a footnote marker inline, generating and linking it with the complete citation in the references section in the footer of the article, just as if a complete {{Citation}} template had been used at that point in the body.
If desired, as with any inline citation, the ref tag may be named, to enable re-use inline in other parts of the transcluding demographic article:
Some population data.<ref name="UNWPP-2022">{{Cite UN World Population Prospects|2022}}</ref>
. . .
Some additional data needing a citation.<ref name="UNWPP-2022" />
In cases where subsequent inline citations refer to different rows (country data) or columns (population or other statistics) from the spreadsheet, the {{rp}} template may be used with parameter {{at}} to specify different rows or columns than the first inline citation uses:
Some population data.<ref name="UNWPP-2022">{{Cite UN World Population Prospects|2022}}</ref>
. . .
Some data from country B.<ref name="UNWPP-2022" />{{rp|at=2125:2145; X,AH,S}}
With shortened footnotes[edit]
This template is designed for easy use with short citations, so you can add the {{cite UN WPP}} citation just once to the References section of the article, and then include multiple {{sfn|UN WPP|2022|loc=...}} short footnote templates in-line in the article, each one with different value for the |loc= param, which will encode the row and column locations. Each inline short citation will link to the unique {{cite UN WPP}} citation in the References section of the article, so the long citation doesn't need to be repeated; it only has to be there once. See Help:Shortened footnotes for an introduction to shortened footnotes.
Note that you can put any text string as the value of |loc=, in particular, it doesn't have to be exactly 'rows' and 'cols'; it could be: |loc=row 7875:7879, col S,X,AB=, or |loc=r. 7875:7879, c. S,X,AB=, or |loc=rows 7875 to 7879, and cols. S,X, and AB=, or whatever makes sense.
If you are using the UN WPP report on a page that uses shortened footnotes, then you can place just one copy of {{cite UN WPP}} in the "References" section (sometimes called "Bibliography", or "Works cited"), and refer to the citation using either standard <ref>...</ref> tags, or using the {{sfn}} template. In this case, use the simplest version of {{cite UN WPP}} with only the required year; leave parameters |rows= and |cols= out. The row and column information will be provided in the {{sfn}} templates using the |loc= parameter of sfn, separated by a comma, so that each sfn reference can point to different rows and columns as necessary. See § Examples below.
For details about usage of {{sfn}} with |loc=, see Template:Sfn § Location in the source text.
Under the hood: Internally, the template automatically creates a simple #CITEREF reference anchor which is equivalent to the output of {{harvid|UN WPP|YYYY}}. So for 2022, it's equivalent to {{harvid|UN WPP|2022}} (i.e., citerefun_wpp2022). This may be used in shortened footnotes to link to the full citation, such as via {{sfn|UN WPP|2022|loc=row 7875:7879, col S,X,AB}}. See Anchored citations.
