Template:Resfn/doc

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Are you using the {{sfn}} template? Did you just get this error?

Cite error: The named reference "FOOTNOTESmith200626" was defined multiple times with different content (see the help page).

Then you are probably in the right place.

The re-use shortened footnote template {{Resfn}} allows re-using a note already created with the {{Sfn}} template granting that a named reference is never defined multiple times. This is a companion template to {{Sfn}}; see there for a more general introduction.

Usage

[edit]

Usage is similar to that of the {{sfn}} template, provided that a reference has been already defined using {{sfn}}. For example, given the following bibliographic source,

Bibliography

[edit]
  • Einstein, Albert (1907), "Über das Relativitätsprinzip und die aus demselben gezogene Folgerungen", Jahrbuch der Radioaktivität und Elektronik, 4

the following wiki code

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.{{sfn|Einstein|1907|p=411|ps=: "Hi there!"}} Nulla vel lorem augue. In non ante sed dolor egestas rhoncus ut in quam. Vivamus quis ante rutrum erat suscipit interdum.{{resfn|Einstein|1907|p=411}} 
    
=== Notes === 
{{reflist}}

will produce the following result:

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.[1] Nulla vel lorem augue. In non ante sed dolor egestas rhoncus ut in quam. Vivamus quis ante rutrum erat suscipit interdum.[1]

Notes

[edit]
  1. ^ a b Einstein 1907, p. 411: "Hi there!"

Current limitations

[edit]

Currently the only named parameters working as expected are |p=, |pp=, |ps= (ignored), |page= and |pages=. Support for the |loc= parameter is missing at the moment, but hopefully it will come soon.
