Template:Book/en contains the English-language documentation for Template:Book.
Examples
Example One
This is an example for using "Template:Book"
* {{Book
|title=MediaWiki
|author=Daniel J. Barrett
|year=2009
|url=https://openlibrary.org/works/OL17309374W/MediaWiki
|comment=available to borrow from OpenLibrary.org
}}
Result One
- MediaWiki (2009) by Daniel J. Barrett (<https://openlibrary.org/works/OL17309374W/MediaWiki>, available to borrow from OpenLibrary.org)
Example Two
It's even possible to use this template on a single line of wikitext:
* {{Book|title=MediaWiki|author=Daniel J. Barrett}}
Result Two
- MediaWiki (timeless) by Daniel J. Barrett (<FIXME>, )
Leaving parameters out (as above) will just cause the resulting text to look a little weird. But it's a wiki; things often look weird.
Example Three
This template is "forgiving". It's possible to leave all of the parameters off:
* {{Book}}
Result:
- some silly book (timeless) by someone (<FIXME>, )
When the "title" parameter is omitted, some filler text (e.g. "some silly book") is inserted. When the "author" parameter is omitted, different filler text is inserted.
