Template:Src/Documentation

Template:src is used to create sourcebook references and categorize articles making them. It leverages Template:src/Text to generate the appropriate strings.

Usage

It accepts one mandatory string parameter, one optional string parameter, and one optional named parameter:

• 1 is a sourcebook abbreviation; valid options are listed in Template:src/Abbreviations.
• 2 is a page reference, typically a single integer or a range.
• ref (defaults unset) is used to turn it into a reference.

Return

{{src|sr5}} puts the article into the appropriate category, then returns:

Shadowrun Fifth Edition Core Rulebook

Adding the second parameter, e.g. {{src|sr5|404}}, modifies the return:

Shadowrun Fifth Edition Core Rulebook (p. 404)

Setting ref to any value creates a reference with the first parameter and the value of ref combined into the reference name. If ref is included, the second parameter is ignored if included. For instance, My name is sr5-404{{src|sr5|ref=404}} returns:

My name is sr5-404.
