"Google" is present in two parameters in the template (both author=
and publisher=
), which seems redundant. I suggest that one of these are removed. (I am not referring to the links for Google Maps or Google Street View in the website=
parameter.) –Dream out loud (talk) 16:36, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
- Maps are traditionally cited to their authors, which may or may not be the same as their publisher. Removing it from this template would make it inconsistent with other map citations in many other articles. Imzadi 1979 → 21:53, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
