Usage

This template formats a journal citation for use inside Cite error: Invalid <ref> tag; refs with no name must have content tags.

Basic example

To cite a journal article, place the following inside your text:

<ref name="EmeryThomson2001">{{Cite journal |authors=Emery, W. J., and R. E. Thomson |year=2001 |paper_or_booktitle=Data analysis methods in physical oceanography, 2nd edition, Section 5.6.7–5.6.8 |journal_or_publisher=Elsevier |doi=(ISBN)9780080477008 }}</ref>

This will produce a numbered reference in the text and a formatted entry in the Notes section.

Displaying the reference list

At the bottom of the page, add:

== References ==

This will display all citations defined with <ref></ref> tags.

  • |year= — Publication year.
