Usage แก้ไข

This template may be used in "References" and "Further reading" sections, and on talk pages, to cite The Jargon File website.

Parameters แก้ไข

The template takes the following positional or named parameters:

  • |1= or |entry= – the name of The Jargon File entry to be cited. If this parameter is omitted, the template uses the name of the Wiktionary entry.
  • |2= or |url= – the template should be able to automatically create a link to The Jargon File website. However, if the default URL is not linking to the correct webpage, use this parameter to indicate the URL of the webpage to be linked to. You may either provide the full URL, or the part between html/ and the file extension (.html).
  • |3= or |accessdate= – The date on which The Jargon File webpage was accessed. Use either of these date formats: 1 January 2017 or January 1, 2017.
  • |4=, |text=, or |passage= – a passage quoted from the webpage.
  • |nodot= – by default, the template adds a full stop (period) at the end of the citation. To suppress this punctuation, use |nodot=1 or |nodot=yes.
