Intended use?
[edit]This edit looks to me like a liability. Is this how the template is supposed to be used? - Jmabel | Talk 06:10, 2 May 2006 (UTC)
Delete, deprecate, or fix
[edit]While editing Burying in Woollen Acts, I encountered this template and discovered it was generating {{dead link}}s. I replaced the specific use I encountered with {{cite web}} and an archiveurl. I don't know if the template is used enough to make it worth being fixing. 72.244.206.254 (talk) 01:16, 19 March 2013 (UTC)
- I created this template back when Bartleby.com added the complete text of The Encyclopedia of World History Sixth Edition to their site as an online resource. My thinking was that, such a resource would become used on many Wikipedia pages, and the template would make such citations easy and consistent. However, Bartleby.com took the content down after a while (I do not know why) and it does not look like it's coming back.
- So the template can, and probably should, be deleted, with any remaining usage being converted to Cite Book. —MJBurrage(T•C) 18:19, 20 March 2013 (UTC)
