This is a documentation subpage for Template:Cite NSRW. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

This template enables the citation of articles from The New Student's Reference Work in the manner of {{ cite encyclopedia}}. The article title can have a Wikisource link, an arbitrary external link, or no link.

{{Cite NSRW|wstitle=article title}}

{{Cite NSRW|wstitle=article title|display=alternative title |author=name|noicon=x|vb=x|volume=number}}

or with a specification of a title not linked to Wikisource:

{{Cite NSRW|title=non-Wikisource article title|author=name |noicon=x|vb=x|volume=number|url=http...|accessdate=date}}</nowiki>

As an alternative to author=full name the parameters first=first names and last=last name can be used. The ref=refs parameter can also be set for use with {{ harv}} family of templates. See {{ cite encyclopedia}} for details about these standard parameters.

The mechanics of Wikisource will sometimes require that a link have disambiguation information which is not part of the original title. The display parameter allows this information to be hidden for the purpose of the citation. For example:

{{Cite NSRW|wstitle=Madeira (river)|display=Madeira, a river of South America}}

displays as:

Beach, Chandler B., ed. (1914). "Madeira, a river of South America" . The New Student's Reference Work . Chicago: F. E. Compton and Co.

{{Cite NSRW|title=Tower, Charlemagne}}

{{Cite NSRW
 |title=Tower, Charlemagne
 |volume=4
 |url=http://chestofbooks.com/.../pp0239.html
