Coined by unknown


This template indicates that a term was coined by a certain person or group of people in a certain year or other date. It links the name of the coiner to Wikipedia, so using {{w}} inside the template is unnecessary and doesn't work. Alternatively, you can pass in a Wikidata QID (e.g. Q42), which will automatically fetch the Wikipedia article, description, and name of the entity. This is especially useful for cases when a Wikidata item exists, but the corresponding Wikipedia article has not been created yet.

Example:

{{coinage|en|Josiah Willard Gibbs}}

evaluates to

Coined by Josiah Willard Gibbs

Example with more parameters:

{{coinage|en|Josiah Willard Gibbs|in=1881|nat=American|occ=scientist}}

evaluates to

Coined by American scientist Josiah Willard Gibbs in 1881

Example of automatic linking and description using a Wikidata ID:

{{coinage|en|Q153243}}

evaluates to

Coined by American scientist (1839–1903) Josiah Willard Gibbs
