Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

Usage[edit]

The options that the template offers may seem a bit complicated at first. Don't worry. Most of them are optional. If a book is you want to reference is Volume 1 or Volume 2 of something, then use the|Vol option. If it isn't, then leave|Vol off. Rinse, lather, and repeat.

Hyperlinks between citations & references[edit]

There are several ways to handle linking between citations in the text and references in the articles Reference section.

Link via Wikipedia link
Let the Harvard templates select the link ID.
Set the link ID yourself.

If the ID of an existing link is unknown, use Navigation popups to find it.
