Template:Pub

Documentation

This template is to be used for publication data for a work. Data for a publication uses template {{PubDatePlace}} instead.

Parameters:

1. Integer number, order of publication: 0 for manuscript or composed date, 1 for first publication, 2 for second, up to 50 (mandatory; should contain only an integer number)

2. Four-digit year of publication (mandatory;should contain a integer number, usually four digits, the year of publication. There may be a prefix, e.g. "ca.", "ante", or "post")

Optional parameters:

3. Name and details of publication (optional, text that can include templates or links)

Parameter 3 should contain a link to a publication page to which this work is linked. The link should use the template {{NoComp}} (or double brackets [[ ]]); use {{NoCo}} only if all the works in the publication have the same composer.

–. |vol= Volume (or Edition or Part) and number (optional)

The volume (or edition or part) can be specified, in the format vol=<type> <number>, for example "Volume 2" or "Part 1" or "Heft 5"; the words and numbers must be the same as in the template {{Volumes}} on the publication page, and there must be a space between.

–. |no= Sequence of work in publication (optional)

–. |pg= Page number of work in publication (optional)

The sequence number or page in that publication can be specified; if you intend for these parameters (sequence or page number) to appear in the table generated by the template {{MultiPubList}}, they should be declared as parameters, as in Syntax B below.

–. |cmp= One word, "Composed" or "Written" (or any other word) describing a non-publication event (optional)

–. |ms= Any text, indicating that the publication cited is a manuscript
