Example formats

you can use this templates to do the same on your future edits: {{Cite web}}, {{Cite news}} and {{Cite book}}. The easy way to use them is to use the cite on the menu at the top of the edit window and then select from the templates list the one you that want to use. Just fill in the parameters you want and they will be formated for you. Enjoy your edits.credit to: (talk) 18:07, 11 December 2014 (UTC) Copy a blank version to use. Almost all parameter names are supported only in lower case (some initialisms, such as |isbn= have upper-case aliases like |ISBN=, which are acceptable for use). Use the "|" (pipe) character between each parameter. Unused parameters may be deleted to avoid clutter in the edit window. Some samples on this documentation page may include the current date. If the date is not current, then the page.
