Usage

This template may be used for creating citations in "References" sections and on discussion pages. For indicating quotations in dictionary entries, please use {{quote-journal}}.

Sample templates

Most commonly used parameters

{{cite-journal|author=|authorlink=|title=|url=|archiveurl=|archivedate=|journal=|location=|publisher=|date=|volume=|issue=|page=|pages=|pageurl=|issn=|oclc=|text=}}

All available parameters

{{cite-journal|author=|last=|first=|authorlink=|author2=|last2=|first2=|authorlink2=|author3=|last3=|first3=|authorlink3=|author4=|last4=|first4=|authorlink4=|author5=|last5=|first5=|authorlink5=|coauthors=|quotee=|trans=|translator=|translators=|title=|trans-title=|titleurl=|url=|archiveurl=|archivedate=|editor=|editors=|journal=|trans-work=|format=|version=|volume=|issue=|others=|edition=|location=|publisher=|bibcode=|doi=|issn=|jstor=|lccn=|oclc=|pmid=|ssrn=|id=|date=|month=|year=|year_published=|accessdate=|section=|sectionurl=|page=|pages=|pageurl=|column=|columns=|columnurl=|text=|passage=|text_block=|passage_block=|t=|translation=|lang=|usenodot=|nodot=}}

Certain basic parameters can be used in the template without any named parameters, as follows:

#* {{cite-journal|[year]|[author]|[title]|[journal]|[url]|[page]|[passage]|[translation]}}

This will not work if any of the parameters contains an equals ("=") sign. The value of any parameter containing an equals sign must be surrounded by <nowiki> tags, like this: "<nowiki>http://foo.com?id=bar</nowiki>". Alternatively, use a named parameter such as url.

The following example:

{{cite-journal|author=A. R. Dunkel|author2=J. S. Zijlstra|author3=C. P. Groves|title=Giant Rabbits, Marmosets, and British Comedies: Etymology of Lemur Names, Part 1|url=http://www.aeecl.org/lemurnews/lemurnews2011_16.pdf|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20140324170841/http://www.aeecl.org/lemurnews/lemurnews2011_16.pdf|archivedate=24 March 2014|journal=Lemur News|year=2011–2012|volume=16|pages=64–70}}.

produces this:

A. R. Dunkel; J. S. Zijlstra; C. P. Groves (2011–2012), chapter GIANT RABBITS, MARMOSETS, AND BRITISH COMEDIES: ETYMOLOGY OF LEMUR NAMES, PART 1, in Lemur News‎^[1], volume 16, archived from the original on 24 March 2014, pages 64–70.

Parameters

All parameters are optional except for those marked "Mandatory", and may contain inline interwiki or external links as needed.

Parameter	Description
author or last and first	The author's name. Use either author, or last and first, not both. Additional authors can be added using the parameters author2 to author5, or last2 and first2 to last5 and first5.
authorlink	The name of an English Wikipedia article about the author, which will be linked to the author's name. Additional articles can be linked to other authors' names using the parameters authorlink2 to authorlink5. Do not add the prefix ":en:" or "w:". This parameter cannot link to another external website. Alternatively, link the author's name directly, like this: "author=[[w:Charles Butler (lawyer)|Charles Butler]]" or "author={{w|Edward Coke}}".
coauthors	The names of one or more coauthors. If there is more than one, separate the names with semicolons.
quotee	The name of the person being quoted, if the whole passage quoted is a quotation of someone other than the author.
title	The title of the journal article.
trans-title	If the title of the journal article is not in English, use this parameter to provide an English translation of the title.
titleurl	The URL or web address of a website where the full text of the title of the journal article can be accessed. Do not link to any website that has content in breach of copyright.
url	The URL or web address of a website where the full text of the journal article can be accessed.
archiveurl and archivedate or accessdate	Use archiveurl and archivedate (which must be used together) to indicate the URL or web address of a webpage on a website such as the Internet Archive or Perma.cc at which the webpage has been archived, and the date on which the webpage was archived. Alternatively, if the webpage cannot be archived, use accessdate to indicate when its URL was accessed. (If the webpage has been archived, it is unnecessary to use this parameter.)
trans, translator, or translators	The name(s) of the translator(s) of the journal article. Separate multiple names with semicolons.
editor or editors	The name of one or more editors of the journal.
journal	Mandatory: the name of the journal. The parameter names magazine, periodical and work may also be used.

format	The format of the journal article, for example, "PDF".
version	The version of the journal article quoted.
volume	The volume number of the journal referred to.
issue	The issue number of the journal referred to. For example, if the issue is "volume 1, number 3", then type "issue=3".
edition	The edition of the journal, if any. It is usually not necessary to indicate the first or only edition of a journal.
location	The location(s) where the journal was published. If more than one location is stated, separate the locations with semicolons, like this: "London; New York, N.Y.".
publisher	The name of one or more publishers of the journal. If more than one publisher is stated, separate the names with semicolons.
bibcode, doi, issn, jstor, lccn, oclc, pmid, ssrn or id	The Bibcode, digital object identifier (DOI), JSTOR number, Library of Congress Control Number (LCCN), Online Computer Library Center (OCLC) number (which can be looked up at the WorldCat website), PubMed Identifier (PMID), and/or Social Sciences Research Network (SSRN) number of the journal article, and/or the International Standard Serial Number (ISSN) of the journal. Use id for an identifier other than the ones listed above.
date or (month and) year	Mandatory: the date, or (month and) year, of publication of the journal article. Alternatively, the information can be specified like this: "1=2015" ("1=" may be omitted if the information is put in the template as the first unnamed parameter).
year_published	If year is used to state the year when the original version of the journal article was published, year_published can be used to state the year in which the version quoted from was published, for example, "|year=1919|year_published=2009".
others	Other information about the journal article.
section	If the page of the journal referred to has no number (for example, "frontispiece" or "title page"), use this parameter to refer to it. The word "page" or "pages" will not be displayed.
sectionurl	The URL or web address of the webpage containing the section of the journal article referred to. The section number will be linked to this webpage.
page or pages	The page number or range of page numbers referred to. Use an en dash to separate the page numbers in the range, for example, "pages=1–2".
pageurl	The URL or web address of the webpage containing the page of the journal article referred to. The page number(s) will be linked to this webpage.
column or columns	The column number or range of column numbers of the work. Use an en dash to separate the column numbers in the range.
columnurl	The URL or web address of the webpage containing the column(s) of the work referred to. The column number(s) will be linked to this webpage.
text or passage	A passage from the journal article that you wish to quote. If the passage exceeds 300 characters, it is automatically displayed in a separate text block. To suppress this, use text_block=no or passage_block=no.
text_block or passage_block	This parameter can be used in two ways: To have the template display a quote in a separate text block. Use text_block=no or passage_block=no together with passage to ensure that the quote is not displayed in a separate text block (see text or passage above).
t or translation	A translation of the passage.
lang, language, or worklang	A code indicating the language that the journal article is written in (preferred; for a list of the codes, see Wiktionary:List of languages), or the names of one or more languages written in full. It is unnecessary to indicate the language if the article is written in English.
usenodot	If |usenodot=1 or |usenodot=yes is specified, a full stop (period) is added to the end of the citation by default. The parameter |nodot=1 or |nodot=yes can then be used to suppress this punctuation.
