Template:Vcite conference

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

This page in a nutshell: These templates format citations. They are like {{cite book}}, {{cite journal}}, etc., except that they use the Vancouver system, a popular citation style in science and medicine.

This template uses TemplateStyles:

Template:Citation/styles.css

These templates format citations to sources. They have the following major variants:

{{vcite book}} for books
{{vcite conference}} for conference proceedings
{{vcite journal}} for articles in academic journals and similar periodicals. You can use the Diberri template filler to generate this template, by replacing "cite" with "vcite" in its output.
{{vcite news}} for articles in newspapers and similar news sources
{{vcite web}} for web pages, that is, sources published as part of web sites that are not books, journals, or news

These templates can be used in Wikipedia footnotes and in article sections that list sources. They generally follow the Vancouver system as specified by the U.S. National Library of Medicine (NLM).^[1] For performance reasons they do not generate COinS metadata (see Rationale below); otherwise, they act much like {{cite book}}, {{cite journal}}, etc.

Another alternative is to use the |vauthors= parameter in the regular {{cite book}}, {{cite journal}}, etc. templates. This will format the authors according to the Vancouver system and generate clean meta data (see rationale).

Terminology[kulemba source]

article: an individual article or document within a journal or newspaper
book: an entire major published work
chapter: a single part of or contribution to a book: this might be a chapter, or some other part such as an appendix, figure, or table
journal: academic journal, magazine, or any other archival periodical publication
newspaper: a newspaper or any similar periodical publication
web page: a web page that is not part of a book, journal, or newspaper. When citing a web page, it is important to identify the source. At the very least this should include an author; when possible, it should also include the publisher or homepage of the web site in question. For example, when citing comments by Professor X at the web page http://www.example.edu/~professorx/study/comments.html it's good practice to also cite the title of Professor X's homepage, which you might find by consulting http://www.example.edu/~professorx/index.html.

Parameters[kulemba source]

|accessdate=Date: Date the URL (see |url=) was last accessed and checked;^[2]^[3] see Dates. This parameter is intended to be used for websites that typically change pages after they are published; it is not normally needed for websites that do not typically change published pages, such as pages in archival journals.
|agency=Agency: The news agency that distributed the article, as in Associated Press or Reuters.
|archivedate=Date: Date the resource was archived as described under |archiveurl=; see Dates.
|archiveurl=URL: The URL of an archived copy of the resource identified by |url=, if (or in case) the original resource is unavailable. This is typically used to refer to services like WebCite, Archive.is and the Internet Archive.
|articletype=Type: The type of journal article. This should be omitted for standard articles. When specified, the most common values are abstract and letter; other values include book review, editorial, and interview.^[4]
|at=Location: The location in a book of the chapter or part being identified. By convention, use |pages= if the location is a page or range of pages, and use |at= if the location is something else, such as [about 10 p.].^[5]
|author=Author(s): Author or authors of the resource. See Authors.

For {{vcite book}}, if |editor= is also given this is assumed to be the author of the chapter,^[6] otherwise of the book.^[7] If the entire book has both authors and other contributors, such as editors or translators, list the latter under |secondaryauthor=. If the entire book has no listed authors, but only editors or other contributors, list them here and omit |secondaryauthor=. If a chapter is being cited but it is not by different authors or editors than the entire book, list the contributors here and omit |editor=.

|author.=: If Author(s) ends in a period (.), specify an empty |author.= parameter to suppress any duplicate periods in the output.
|bibcode=Bibcode: The journal article's bibcode in the Astrophysics Data System, as in 1924MNRAS..84..308E.
|chapter=Chapter title: Title of the part of the book being cited; often this is a chapter title.^[8] See Titles. If the title is in a foreign language, put its English translation in |trans_chapter=.
|chapter.=: If Chapter title ends in a question mark or exclamation point, specify an empty |chapter.= parameter to suppress the period that normally follows the chapter.
|chapteraccessdate=Date: Date the chapter's URL (see |chapter-url=) was last accessed and checked;^[9] see Dates.
|chapterformat=Format: The format of the resource that |chapter-url= links to. Specify PDF for Portable Document Format. Omit if the article is published in HTML or XHTML. This is an extension to the NLM Vancouver style; it is added here because Wikipedia articles are commonly hyperlinked, whereas the NLM style is purely text.
|chapterid=ID: Identification for the chapter, as in Appendix A.^[10]
|chapterlanguage=Language: The language of the chapter, if not English.^[11] This need not be given if it is the same as |language=.
|chapterupdate=Update action and date: The uncapitalized word for updated that was used by the source, followed by the date the chapter was updated or revised, as in changed 2009-12-13 or revised 2009.^[12] See Dates. This need not be given if it is the same as |updated=.
|chapter-url=URL: URL of the chapter. This should point to a freely readable version of the full text. If the full text is not freely readable, give this parameter only if the book has no other identification such as |isbn=. When giving this parameter, also give |chapteraccessdate= unless the URL is known to be stable.
|column=Column: The column number the newspaper article started in, as in 3.^[13]
|contenttype=type: The type of book, if it is not a standard book. Possible values include dissertation, master's thesis, and bibliography.^[14]
|date=Date: Date of publication; see Dates.

For book publication dates it is often simplest to specify just the year, even if a more precise date is known, as a too-precise publication date may distract the reader with useless and even misleading information when a source is written well before its official publication date. For journals, the month and day are optional unless |volume= and |issue= are both missing. For journal publication dates it is often simplest to specify just the year, even if a more precise date is known, as a too-precise publication date may distract the reader with useless and even misleading information when a source is written well before its official publication date. For newspapers it is best to give the full date.^[15] For web pages, omit this if it is the same as |homedate=.^[16]

|doi=DOI: A digital object identifier for the chapter, book, or journal article, such as 10.1130/0091-7613(1990)018<1153:TAFSIA>2.3.CO;2.

For books, if |chapter= is also given, DOI should be the DOI for the chapter if available. Often the two DOIs are related; for example, the chapter with DOI 10.1007/978-3-642-04568-4_45 belongs to a book with DOI 10.1007/978-3-642-04568-4.

|doi-broken-date=Date: The most recent date that DOI was checked and found to be not working; see Dates. This can happen when a publication is transferred to a new publisher which does not provide DOI access. DOI is still shown, but without a link, and the article is placed in Category:Pages with DOIs broken since YYYY, where YYYY }} is the date's year.
|edition=Edition: The edition or version being cited, if the source is published in more than one edition.

With books, this is equivalent to |editionphrase=, except that it appends " ed." instead of just a period; common values include 2nd, 3rd, and Rev. See |editionphrase= for details. With journals, this uses the same sort of abbreviations as the |journal= parameter, for example, Off Ed for Office Edition.^[17] With newspapers, capitalize each important word and use common abbreviations, as in Metro Ed. and English Ed.^[18]

|editionphrase=Edition phrase: For books, a complete phrase specifying the edition or version being cited, if the book is published in more than one. In the NLM Vancouver style this uses Arabic ordinals and abbreviations, with the first word capitalized and periods after abbreviations. The |editionphrase= parameter should be used instead of |edition= if "." should be appended rather than the typical " ed." Examples where this might be needed include foreign-language editions such as Shohan and other phrases such as 2009–2010 ed., fully rev. and expand.^[19]
|editionphrase.=: If Edition phrase ends in a period, specify an empty |editionphrase.= parameter to suppress the period that normally follows the edition phrase.
|editor=Editor(s): Editor or editors of the book. This uses the same format as for |author=; see Authors. Editor(s) should contain roles, as in Smith RB, editor and Smith RB, Jones WR, editors. When both |author= and |editor= are given, it is assumed that the authors contributed a chapter to the editors' book, and |chapter= should also be given. Otherwise, the editors are listed in place of the authors. If the entire book has both authors and editors, the editors should be listed under |secondaryauthor=.
|format=Format: The type of medium for the source. Specify PDF if |url= specifies a resource in Portable Document Format. Omit |format= if the source is published in HTML or XHTML. Other possible values include physical formats such as microfiche, ultrafiche, microfilm, and ultrafilm for books,^[20] and video, videocast, and podcast for web pages.^[21] Normally it is not necessary to specify Internet or print, as this should be obvious from the rest of the citation if no format is specified.

For journal and news sources, this parameter is an extension to the NLM Vancouver style; it is added here because Wikipedia articles are commonly hyperlinked, whereas the NLM style is purely text.

|harvid=ID: An anchor suitable for Harvard citations; see Anchors. For example, the |harvid=SmithJones2010 might be used as a target of the Harvard citation {{harv|Smith|Jones|2010}}, and it is equivalent to |ref={{harvid|Smith|Jones|2010}}. If |harvid= and |ref= are both given, |harvid= is ignored.
|home=Homepage title: The homepage's title; see Titles.^[22] If the title is in a foreign language, put its English translation in |trans_home=.
|home.=: If Homepage title ends in a question mark or exclamation point, specify an empty |home.= parameter to suppress the period that would otherwise follow the homepage title.
|homeaccessdate=Date: Date the homepage (see |homeurl=) was last accessed and checked;^[23] see Dates.
|homedate=Date: Date of publication for the home page; see Dates.^[24]
|homeedition=Edition: The edition or version of the homepage being cited. This is equivalent to |editionphrase=, except that it appends " ed." instead of just a period.
|homeeditionphrase=Edition phrase: The edition or version being cited, if the homepage is published in more than one. In the NLM Vancouver style this uses Arabic ordinals and abbreviations, with the first word capitalized and periods after abbreviations. The |editionphrase= parameter should be used instead of |homeedition= if "." should be appended rather than the typical " ed."^[25]
|homeeditionphrase.=: If Edition phrase ends in a period, specify an empty |homeeditionphrase.= parameter to suppress the period that normally follows the homepage edition phrase.
|homeformat=Format: The type of medium for the homepage, as in PDF; see |format=. The NLM Vancouver style specifies Internet as the only value, and it also specifies a content type prefix of homepage, as in homepage on the Internet.^[26]
|homelanguage=Language: The language of the homepage, if not English.^[27]
|homenotes=Notes: Any further information about the homepage. This should be brief; complete sentences are not needed.^[28] End it with a period.
|homeupdate=Update action and date: The uncapitalized word for updated that was used by the source, followed by the date the homepage was updated or revised, as in changed 2009-12-13 or revised 2009.^[29] See Dates.
|homeurl=URL: URL of the homepage. When giving this parameter, also give |homeaccessdate= unless the URL is known to be stable.
|id=ID: A unique identifier, used if no other ID is available. Omit this if a more specialized parameter is also given, such as |doi=, |isbn=, |oclc=, or |pmid=. The ID should specify the kind of identifier used, as in {{patent|US|6556992}}, which generates US 6556992 . Other ID-generating templates include {{arxiv}}, {{JFM}}, {{JSTOR}} {{MR}}, and {{Zbl}}.
|isbn=isbn: The book's International Standard Book Number such as 978-0-231-14636-4. The hyphens may be omitted, as in |isbn=9780231146364. Prefer 13- to 10-digit ISBNs if both are available. Convert an SBN to an ISBN by prefixing it with a zero. See Wikipedia:ISBN for more about ISBNs in Wikipedia.
|issue=Issue: The issue number of the journal. Use an Arabic number, without any preceding "number" or "no." If it is a range, use an en dash, as in 1–2. Issues may be named, as in Anniversary issue, or an issue supplement or part, as in 3 Suppl, 16 Suppl Pt 1, or a special number, as in 3 Spec No.^[30]
|journal=Journal name: Name of the journal. This should be the name as it was published at the time. In the NLM Vancouver style, journal names are abbreviated by omitting insignificant words and replacing the rest with abbreviations, with no periods.^[31] For example, The Journal of Biocommunication becomes J Biocommun without any periods. Lists of standard journal abbreviations are available.^[32] In some other styles, journal names are spelled out in full, or contain periods after abbreviations.
|journal.=: If Journal name ends in a period, question mark or exclamation point, specify an empty |journal.= parameter to suppress the period that normally follows the journal name.
|journalformat=Format: The type of medium for the entire journal. Possible values include physical formats such as microfiche, ultrafiche, microfilm, and ultrafilm.^[33] Normally it is not necessary to specify Internet or print, as this should be obvious from the rest of the citation if no format is specified.
|language=Language: The language of the source, if not English.^[34]
|lay-date=Date: The lay summary's publication date; see Dates.
|lay-source=Source: The lay summary's source, for example, New York Times.
|lay-summary=URL: The URL of the lay summary, which could be in the popular press.
|location=Location: Place of publication.^[35] For newspapers this is appended to the newspaper name, in parentheses; see |work=.
|notes=Notes: Any further information. This should be brief; complete sentences are not needed.^[36] End it with a period.
|oclc=OCLC: The book's Online Computer Library Center number, such as 3185581. This is particularly useful for older books that lack an ISBN.
|pages=Pages: The page number or numbers of the source. Use en dashes in page ranges, as in 99–106. For a single hyphenated page number such as "3‑5", use a non-breaking hyphen ("‑" or "‑") rather than a regular hyphen, so that it is not inadvertently changed to an en dash by another editor or by a bot. In the NLM Vancouver style, a page range does not repeat page numbers (for example, 1447–50 rather than 1447–1450) unless they are followed by a letter (for example, 1447A–1450A).

For books, use the page numbers of the chapter, as in 100 or 37, 39. In accordance with the Vancouver style, this will be displayed with a leading "p. ", regardless of whether the argument is a single page number or several numbers.^[5] For journals, use the page numbers of the journal article.^[37] For news, use the page numbers of the article, if the printed edition was consulted. In the NLM Vancouver style, only the first page number is given.^[38] For web pages, use this if only part of the web page is being cited. For example, if the URL is a PDF file, this might be 603–4.^[39]

|pagination=Pagination: The total number of pages in the book, followed by a space and "p", as in 495 p. Or if the book is multivolume, list the number of volumes followed by a space and "vol", as in 4 vol.^[40] Do not append a period. If a chapter is cited, use |pages= or |at= instead of |pagination=.
|partid=Part ID: Use this when citing just a part of the article. Give the article's identification for the part, as in Table 2 or Figure 1A.^[41]
|partp=Part pages: The page or pages of the part being cited, in the same format as |pages=.^[42]
|parttitle=Part title: The title of the part being cited.^[43] See Titles. If the title is in a foreign language, put its English translation in |trans_parttitle=. This can be combined with |partid= and |pages= to produce most citations for article parts; complex examples, such as citing parts available in multiple languages, should be placed at the end of |notes= instead.
|parttitle.=: If Part title ends in a question mark or exclamation point, and if no |partp= is given, specify an empty |parttitle.= parameter to suppress the period that would otherwise follow the title.
|parturl=Part URL: The URL of the part being cited, if this differs from that of the article.
|physicaldescription=Physical description: The book's physical characteristics if it requires special equipment to read, as in 3 microfiche, blue & white, negative, 5×10&cm. If this is given |format= should also be given.^[44]
|pmc=PMC: The article's PubMed Central number, such as 2699548. This provides free full-text access.
|pmid=PMID: The article's PubMed Unique Identifier, as in 15128012. This provides access to an abstract and citation, and is a standard identifier in medicine and health-related fields. It may be useful even if |doi= is available, as it may point to a freely readable copy when the DOI does not, and PubMed servers are often more reliable than servers for DOIs.
|publisher=Publisher: The organization or individual that issued the resource. This can be abbreviated if well-known, for example, Wiley for John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

For books, use the publisher's name as recorded in the book.^[45] For news, this parameter should normally not be used; it is present only for backward compatibility with {{cite news}}. In practice, |agency= or |work= should be used instead. For web pages, se the publisher's name as recorded in the homepage.^[46]

|quote=Quote: An optional brief and relevant except from the source. It is surrounded by double quotes "like this", so it should use single-quotes internally.
|ref=Anchor: An anchor for this citation; see Anchors. It should begin with a letter.
|secondaryauthor=Secondary author(s): Editors, translators, illustrators, and other secondary authors. See Authors. Secondary author(s) should contain roles, as in Smith RB, editor and Wu RB, Jones WR, illustrators.^[47]

For books, this parameter should refer to the entire book (not just to a chapter), and should be used only if |author= is also used; in the common case where the author wrote a chapter of a book that has an editor, use |editor= for the editors instead of |secondaryauthor=.

|section=Section: This is convenient shorthand for |sectionphrase=Sect. Section.
|sectionphrase=Section phrase: The section of the newspaper that the article was published in, as in Home & Family.^[38] By convention, use |section= if this is a number.
|series=Series: The name of the series of the book.^[48]
|serieseditor=Editor(s): The editor or editors of the series, followed by ", editor"; see Authors.^[48] The |series= parameter should also be specified.
|seriesvolumephrase=Volume phrase: The volume or number of the book in the series, using the same terminology the source uses, as in no. 7, vol. 7, or just plain 7.^[48] The |series= parameter should also be specified.
|seriesvolume=Volume: A convenience parameter; |seriesvolume=7 is equivalent to |seriesvolumephrase=vol. 7.
|size=Size: The size of the web page, as in 950 kB, about 15 screens, 5 p., about 10 p., 4 paragraphs.^[39] If it contains a podcast or other timed data, specify its duration, as in about 30 sec. or 2 min., 31 sec.}^[21]
|title=Title: Title of the source. See Titles. If the title is in a foreign language, put its English translation in |trans_title=.

For books, this is the title of the entire book.^[49] For journals and news, this is the title of the article.^[50] For web pages, this is the title of the web page.^[51]

|title.=: If Title ends in a question mark, exclamation point or period, specify an empty |title.= parameter to suppress the period that normally follows the title.
|trans_chapter=Translated chapter title: Translation of |chapter= (the chapter title) into English. See Titles.
|trans_home=Translated homepage title: Translation of |home= (the homepage title) into English. See Titles.
|trans_parttitle=Translated title of article part: Translation of |parttitle= (the title of the article part) into English. See Titles.
|trans_title=Translated title: Translation of |title= (the title) into English. See Titles.
|update=Update action and date: The uncapitalized word for updated that was used by the source, followed by the date the source was updated or revised, as in changed 2009-12-13 or revised 2009.^[3]^[52] See Dates.
|url=URL: URL of the source. This should point to a freely readable version of the full text. If the full text is not freely readable, give this parameter only if the source has no other identification such as |doi=, |id=, or |isbn=. When giving this parameter, also give |accessdate= unless the URL is known to be stable.

For books, this should point to the entire book. If it is just a chapter, use |chapter-url=. For journals and news, this should point to the entire article. For journals, if it just a part of the article, use |parturl=. The URL should not point to PubMed Central; use |pmc= for that. For the web, this should point to the individual web page.

|volume=Volume

For books, the volume number of a multivolume book. This is a convenience parameter; |volume=7 is equivalent to |volumephrase=Vol. 7. For journals, the volume number of the journal. Use an Arabic number, without any preceding "volume" or "vol." If it is a range, use an en dash, as in 1–2.^[53]

|volumepagination=Pagination: The total number of pages in the book volume, followed by a space and "p", as in 495 p. Other formats are also allowed, in unusual cases, such as p. 1027–997 for a volume that is continuously paged from the previous volume.^[54] Do not append a period. If a chapter is cited, use |pages= or |at= instead of |pagination=.
|volumephrase=Volume: Which volume of the book was cited. Use an Arabic number, such as Vol. 3 or Pt. 3.^[55] This parameter is intended for multivolume books, when only one volume is being cited; for books that are volumes in a series, use |seriesvolumephrase= instead.
|volumetitle=Volume title: Title of book volume.^[56] See Titles.
|volumetitle.=: If Volume title ends in a question mark or exclamation point, specify an empty |volumetitle.= parameter to suppress the period that normally follows the title.
|work=Work name: Name of the newspaper or other published work that contains the news article. This should be the name as it was published at the time. Do not abbreviate the newspaper name, except it is OK to omit a leading "The", as in New York Times.^[57] If the title does not indicate where the newspaper is published, add the location, as in The ''(Baltimore)'' Sun and Daily Nation (Nairobi); if a location is not well-known, follow it with the state or country, as in The Record ''(Stockton, CA)'', East Valley ''(AZ)'' Tribune, and Le Journal du Jura ''(Bienne, Switzerland)''.^[58] For convenience, if the parenthesized part is at the end, |location= can be used instead, as in "|work=Daily Nation |location=Nairobi".
|work.=: If Work name ends in a period, question mark or exclamation point, specify an empty |work.= parameter to suppress the period that normally follows the work name.
|workformat=Format: The type of medium for the entire newspaper or other published work. Possible values include physical formats such as microfiche, ultrafiche, microfilm, and ultrafilm.^[59] Normally it is not necessary to specify Internet or print, as this should be obvious from the rest of the citation if no format is specified.

Formats[kulemba source]

Typically, parameter values are displayed as entered, without reformatting or linking. This section gives advice as to how to format commonly-used parameters.

Authors[kulemba source]

Authors should be formatted consistently within a Wikipedia article's citations. There is no Wikipedia-wide consensus about what format to use for authors. The Vancouver system suggests one of two main styles:^[60]

Commas separating authors: Use the author's surname (as spelled by the author) and then initials, with no punctuation within an author's name. Convert family rank to Arabic ordinals such as 3rd but keep Sr and Jr alone. Omit degrees, titles, and honors. Romanize non-roman alphabets. Spell out organizational authors, and separate them from other authors with semicolons. Omit "Anonymous". Some examples:

Smith RB, Hu AL O'Malley AR, L'Engle JZ, S'adeh M, St Cloud M, Smythe-Jones ER van der Platt J, Happé J, Sanchez Garcia JM, Lopez y Fuentes P Smith RC Jr, Jones B III, Barney MR Jr; American College of Academics

Semicolons separating authors: This is similar, except separate authors with a semicolon, and spell out author names in full, surname first, with comma separating surname from given name and with periods following abbreviations. Some examples:

Smith, Roger B.; Hu, Albert L. Smith, Robert C. Jr; Jones, Bertram III; Barney, Max R. Jr; American College of Academics

If the contributors to a book are not authors, follow their names with a comma and their role. The role should not be abbreviated. Separate multiple roles with a semicolon. Some examples:

Smith RB, editor Smith RB, Hu AL, editors Jones AR, translator; Joseph RW, illustrator

If there are many authors, replace the trailing authors with et al. or and others. Typically the first three or six authors are kept. In one variant, all authors are listed unless there are more than six authors, in which case just the first three are listed. The limit of three or six often applies separately to individual and to institutional authors.

Dates[kulemba source]

Further information: Wikipedia:Manual of Style (dates and numbers)

Like authors, there is no consensus on Wikipedia about which date format to use in citations. Dates should use a consistent format within an article, and this format need not be the same as in the article's prose. Some formats are specified by the Vancouver system, and some other formats are also in common use on Wikipedia.

All formats allow a plain year, such as 2009, to stand for that year.

Vancouver dates: The Vancouver system uses the following date formats:^[61]

2009 Jan 2 for the second day of January in 2009. Use three-letter English-language month abbreviations, with no periods. 2009 Jan stands for the entire month. 2009 Winter for seasons. Use English-language season names without abbreviation. 2009 Dec 31–2010 Jan 7 for date ranges. Separate the dates with en dashes. Other examples: 2009 Dec–2010 Jan if days are omitted, 2009–2010 if months are omitted, 2009 Jan–Feb if years are the same (and similarly for seasons), and 2009 Jan 1–10 if months are the same.

YYYY-MM-DD: 2009-01-02 for the second day of January in 2009. This format is useful for citations that may be reused in foreign-language Wikipedias, since it is recognized globally.
Day Month Year: 2 January 2009 for the same example, and January 2009 for the entire month.

Use sentence case, the same way that you would capitalize an ordinary sentence, to capitalize the title of a minor work such as a chapter or article. Do this even if the original title capitalizes every word.

Use title case, in which every important word is capitalized, to capitalize the title of a major work such as a book, volume, journal, or newspaper. (The NLM Vancouver style uses sentence case even for book and volume titles, but Wikipedia style is to use title case.)

If a | title= value is in a foreign language, put its translation into | trans_title=, and similarly for | chapter= and | trans_chapter=, for | home= and | trans_home=, and for | parttitle= and | trans_parttitle=. This will display as the original title followed by the translation in square brackets. The original title is often omitted as it is rarely important to English language readers. If including the original title, use the appropriate case of the source language; for example, for the book Man's Fate one might use "|title=La Condition humaine |trans_title=Man's Fate".^[62]

Use ": " to separate a title from a subtitle, unless some other punctuation is already present.

Anchors[kulemba source]

The | ref=Anchor parameter adds an anchor to the citation, so that it can be a target of a wikilink to the citation, as in [[#Anchor|text]]. This is useful in short citations like shortened notes and parenthetical referencing.

Harvard references such as {{harv}} are a common form of parenthetical referencing, and the | harvid=ID parameter is a convenient way to generate an anchor suitable for Harvard referencing templates. The contents of this parameter should be the last names of the authors of the citation (omitting any authors after the first four), followed by the year, all jammed together without spaces or punctuation. For example, article prose might contain the markup {{harv|Peh|Ng|2009}}, which generates the Harvard reference (Peh & Ng 2009). To have this link to a citation, use |harvid=PehNg2009, such as in the following:

{{vcite journal |author=Peh WC, Ng KH |title=Preparing the references |journal=Singapore Med J |volume=50 |issue=7 |pages=659–61 |date=2009 |pmid=19644619 |url=http://smj.sma.org.sg/5007/5007emw1.pdf |format=PDF |harvid=PehNg2009 }}

This generates the following citation:

Peh WC, Ng KH. Preparing the references [PDF]. Singapore Med J. 2009;50(7):659–61. PMID 19644619.

This citation is the target of the Harvard reference. To see how it works, click on the "(Peh & Ng 2009)".

Compatibility[kulemba source]

These templates are intended to be used in place of {{cite book}}, {{cite journal}}, etc. For efficiency reasons they do not support all uses of {{cite book}} etc., but they do support the following commonly used and documented parameters.

The following {{cite book}} parameters are not supported.

Parameter
`\|postscript=`
`\|separator=`

The following {{cite journal}} parameters are not supported. Typically their values should be folded into the values of related parameters.

Parameter	What to do when converting to {{vcite journal}}
`\|editor1-first=`, etc.	Fold into `\|notes=`.
`\|editor1-last=`, etc.	Fold into `\|notes=`.
`\|editor1-link=`, etc.	Fold into `\|notes=`.
`\|issn=`	Not displayed; see Citations to entire journals.
`\|location=`	Place of publication.^[63] Not displayed; see Citations to entire journals.
`\|oclc=`	Not displayed; see Citations to entire journals.
`\|postscript=`	Not supported.
`\|publisher=`	Publisher.^[64] Not displayed; see Citations to entire journals.
`\|series=`	Fold into `\|volume=`.
`\|version=`	Fold into `\|volume=`.

Citations to entire journals: Parameters associated with a citation to the entire journal are not displayed by {{cite journal}}; these parameters would be suitable for a {{vcite entire journal}} template, should one be written. Such parameters are usually not needed; exceptional cases can be folded into |notes=.

Periods after parameters: If the |title= parameter's value ends in a period, question mark, or exclamation point, the period that normally follows the title can be suppressed by specifying an empty |title.= parameter. Parameters such as |author.= behave similarly. Parameters such as |title.= and |author.= are not needed with {{cite book}} etc., which punctuates these parameters differently.

Rationale[kulemba source]

This template was originally designed to attack a major problem with {{citation}}, {{cite book}}, etc.: these templates generate pages that can take way too long to load while browsing and editing. The initial version of the revised templates improved the page-generation time for Autism by a factor of two, and reduced the size of its HTML by over 35%.^[65] As of 24 December 2013, the {{cite journal}} version is faster to generate, because {{cite journal}} is now based on Lua (the html is still much larger).^[66]

To improve performance, this template omits the following features of {{cite book}}, {{cite journal}}, etc., roughly in descending order of importance:

COinS metadata, which greatly bloats the output of {{citation}}, {{cite book}}, {{cite journal}}, etc. Readers who want COinS data can get it by copying a page into a sandbox and replacing all instances of "{{vcite " with "{{cite ". Perhaps a gadget or tool will be developed to automate this task.
Wikilinks from each instance of "doi" to Digital object identifier, from each instance of "ISBN" to International Standard Book Number, from each instance of "PMID" to PMID, etc. Not only do these links consume needless bytes, they are not that useful and they typically constitute overlinking.
Automatically-generated Harvard references. The Vancouver style is normally used with numbered footnotes, not with Harvard references, so this deficiency is not serious. Harvard references can still be done fairly easily with |harvid=; see Anchors.
The vcite variants do not support fancy ways of formatting authors and editors, with parameters like |coauthors=, |last8=, |editor2-first=, and |editor3-link=. Please format author names and links the way you prefer them, inside |author=.
Boldface volume numbers. Boldfacing is not needed in the Vancouver style, and would be a distracting visual cue.
Quote marks around titles of chapter or article titles. This is not part of the Vancouver style.
Arguments don't use a dash alias. For example |archive-url= is not supported but |archiveurl= is.
