Template:Hefferon Linear Algebra/doc
 | This is a documentation subpage for Template:Hefferon Linear Algebra. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
 | This template is a Citation Style 1 wrapper template based on {{Cite book}}. For centralised Citation Style 1 discussions, see Help talk:Citation Style 1. |
This is a specific-source template for the textbook Linear Algebra by Jim Hefferon. Transcluding specific-source templates rather than writing out citations reduces code duplication across articles and allows improvements — such as adding a zbMATH number or wikilinking the name of an author or editor — to apply to all uses of the source at once.
Parameters
[edit]|page=,|pages=,|no-pp=,|at=,|chapter=,|quote=,|quote-page=,|quote-pages=,|ref=,|mode=,|postscript=,|date=,|isbn=, ...- {{Hefferon Linear Algebra}} is a template wrapper around {{cite book}}. Any CS1/CS2 parameter may be given to {{Hefferon Linear Algebra}}, which will pass the parameter to the underlying template.
Citing a different edition
[edit]This template defaults to identifying the fourth edition. One could specify a different edition either by using the parameter |edition=, which causes |date= and |isbn= and other identifiers to be set accordingly, or by setting |isbn=, |date=, etc. directly.
Currently, however, |edition=4th is the only fully-supported setting for |edition= (if this parameter is used at all); that is, if another value of |edition= is used, the date, ISBN, and other fields may need to be filled in by the editor using the template.
Using Citation Style 2
[edit]Despite the {{cs1 wrapper}} message box above, this template can be made to use Citation Style 2 by specifying |mode=cs2, as in the following example:
* {{Hefferon Linear Algebra |mode=cs2}}
