Template:BDA1906/doc

Usage

This template is a wrapper around the citation template {{Cite BDA1906}}. It places a prescript before the citation template to meet the requirements of the section "copying material from free sources" in the plagiarism guideline. this template must be used in place of {{Cite BDA1906}} if text is copied from an article in The Biographical Dictionary of America into a Wikipedia article.

This template uses two parameters:

noicon=any text — prevents the display of the leading icon (N.B, any text is usually either "1", "x", "y" or "yes").

inline=any text – alter wording in the prescript from "This article..." to "One or more of the preceding sentences..." the latter is use if the template is used within a ref..tag pair as an inline citation (displayed as a footnote).

All the parameters are passed on into the template {{Cite BDA1906}}. See its documentation for more details.
