Template:Citation/COinS/doc

This template is a "subroutine" of {{Citation/core}} used for generating COinS metadata. It is designed for {{Citation/core}} and makes assumptions that may not be valid elsewhere.

Example: The following Wiki markup:

• {{cite journal |author=Gross L |title=A broken trust: lessons from the vaccine–autism wars |journal=PLOS Biol |volume=7 |issue=5 |pages=e1000114 |year=2009 |pmid=19478850 |doi=10.1371/journal.pbio.1000114 |url=http://www.plosbiology.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pbio.1000114 |pmc=2682483 }}

which generates this output:

• Gross L (2009). "A broken trust: lessons from the vaccine–autism wars". PLOS Biol. 7 (5): e1000114. doi:10.1371/journal.pbio.1000114. PMC 2682483. PMID 19478850.

might eventually invoke {{Citation/COinS}} as follows:

• {{Citation/COinS |Periodical=PLOS Biol |Title=A broken trust: lessons from the vaccine–autism wars |Surname1=Gross L |Date=2009 |Volume=7 |Issue=5 |At=e1000114 |DOI=10.1371/journal.pbio.1000114 |PMID=19478850 }}

which produces the following HTML:

<span
